Introduction: This randomized clinical trial compared single-visit and two-visit root canal treatment in necrotic teeth with apical periodontitis. Methods: Fifty-nine patients were randomized to single-visit (n = 28) or two-visit (n = 31) treatment, with calcium hydroxide placed for 10-14 days in the two-visit group. Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans were obtained preoperatively and at follow-up. The primary outcome was combined clinical and CBCT-based radiographic healing assessed using the CBCT Periapical Index. Outcomes were categorized
