Super ethoxybenzoic acid (Super-EBA) vs Intermediate restorative material (IRM): Success rate at 1 year
- Population
- Patients needing retrograde filling in root canal therapy (orthograde root canal filling or retreatment not possible; periapical surgery used to save the tooth); no age or gender limitations
- Intervention
- Super ethoxybenzoic acid (Super-EBA)
- Comparison
- Intermediate restorative material (IRM)
- Outcome
- Success rate at 1 year
It is very uncertain whether super ethoxybenzoic acid (Super-EBA) changes success rate at 1 year compared with intermediate restorative material (IRM) (very low certainty).

How reviews are matched to this question
Reviews word the same question differently. Four decision models (TypeSafe's Jev, Liquid AI's d1-ultra, SubQ Snap and Baseten's Elephant) judged each wording of the population, intervention, comparator and outcome against the others; two wordings count as the same when at least three of them agree and none clearly disagrees, and findings count as this question only when all four elements match. Timing, setting and subgroup never split a question: they are shown on each finding.
