ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
To evaluate the relationship between IL-1beta and clinical findings of chronic apical periodontitis and to explore the function of IL-1beta during the endodontic interappointment flare-ups.METHODS:
Periapical exudates samples were obtained from 19 teeth suffering from endodontic flare-ups after root canal preparation and 20 teeth without any symptoms and signs at the second visit after root canal preparation. The levels of IL-1beta were determined by ELISA and the data was analyzed by SAS6.12 software package.RESULTS:
Significantly higher levels of IL-1beta were found in periapical exudates from teeth suffering from endodontic flare-ups than that before canal preparation(P<0.001). The mean IL-1beta levels significantly decreased following the endodontic therapy if there were no symptom at the second visit (P<0.001).CONCLUSION:
The level of IL-1beta in the exudates of root canals were related with the exist of infection which might take an active part in the occurrence of endodontic interappointment flare-up.
