The aim of this work was to sum possible reasons of primary endodontic therapy, to judge causes of frequent endodontic treatment and evaluate its success. The collection consisted of 41 teeth from patients, who were recommended to our clinic to perform the reendodontic therapy in 2007. Final findings were compared to similar study, which was performed on the same workplace in 1997. This comparison formed the result - the main reason of repeated treatment is incomplete filling of root canals and impossibility to find one of the root canals.
