Objectives To compare the root filling quality, the sealer extrusion, and the healing rates of apical lesions addressed via two endodontic treatment approaches. The hypothesis tested was that both techniques present similar apical periodontitis healing results. Materials and methods This study was a parallel-design, pragmatic, and randomized clinical trial. One hundred twenty anterior teeth with necrotic pulps and apical periodontitis were randomly allocated to be either instrumented with hand files and obturated with the lateral compaction technique or instrumented with a single file in a reciprocating movement and obturated with a single-cone technique. The root canal filling quality, the occurrence of sealer extrusion, and apical periodontitis healing were the outcomes of interest. Data were analyzed through chi-square analysis, and the odds ratio for healing was adjusted using a logistic regression model (alpha = 0.05). Results No significant differences were observed between the endodontic techniques regarding the root filling quality or sealer extrusion. Six months after treatment, both endodontic techniques presented equivalent results regarding apical periodontitis healing. The healing rate was affected only by the periapical status at baseline. Conclusions The obturation of the root canal of the anterior teeth using reciprocating file-matched single cones presented a similar quality to that obtained with manual instrumentation followed by the lateral condensation technique. Similar healing rates of apical lesions were also observed.
