The reasons for root canal failure are not entirely clear. Failure may occur predictably on teeth which have a poor clinical result.

This might be caused by doctor error, the inability to clean out all the canals, or the failure to place a post or crown after the root canal. Failure can also occur unpredictably on teeth with excellent results.

Research has found four major causes of root canal failure:

• Tooth or root fracture
• Infections including bacteria, viruses, and fungus.
• The body’s reaction to root canal materials, microorganisms, and cements which inadvertently are pushed past the tooth into the bone.
• Cysts
