Initial root canal treatment and the replacement of a single tooth with an implant are both viable treatment options, but various success rates have been reported for each treatment modality. This retrospective study compared 196 implant restorations and 196 matched initial nonsurgical root canal treatment (NSRCT) teeth in patients for four possible outcomes: success, survival, survival with subsequent treatment intervention and failure. Cross classifications/tabulations were analyzed using Pearson's chi2 test for association of the two classifications (endodontic vs implant and outcome).

Initial root canal therapy and implant placement are both common treatment modalities, and, as such, prognostic factors that influence the treatment outcomes of these two restorations should be identified. In a retrospective chart review, 196 implant restorations and 196 matched initial nonsurgical root canal treated (NSRCT) teeth in patients were evaluated for four possible outcomes-success, survival, survival with intervention, and failure. Results showed that smokers had fewer successes and more failures in both groups (p = 0.
