Successful endodontic treatment depends upon localization, proper chemo-mechanical preparation of the root canal system, debridement, shaping, disinfection, and three-dimensional obturation of the canal system. To achieve this, endodontic therapy used to be performed in multiple visits for complete disinfection of the canals in other words for the better success of endodontic therapy. One-visit endodontic therapy is defined as ‘the conservative non-surgical treatment of an endodontically involved tooth consisting of complete biomechanical cleansing, shaping, and obturation of the root canal system during one visit’. The concept of single-visit root canal treatment is predicted on the entombing theory, which states that a large number of microorganisms are removed during cleaning and shaping and therefore the remaining bacteria are entombed by the root canal obturation, and it’ll miss the essential elements to survive; nutrition and space. The recent advances, help dental practitioners and endodontists to perform root canal treatment in a single visit.
