The study design is a multicentric randomized controlled non-inferiority trial. 160 subjects (teeth) requiring a primary or a secondary root canal treatment will be enrolled in 2 groups (80 in each group). The aim of the study is to assess the efficacy rate and the safety 2 years after root canal obturation undertaken using a ready-to-use calcium silicate sealer (PA1704) compared to the control calcium silicate sealer BioRoot™ RCS. Procedures of root canal treatment will be conventional and standardized for all investigational centers. The canals will be cleaned, shaped and then obturated using a calcium silicate sealer (the ready to use sealer PA1704 or BioRoot™ RCS) with a single cone technique or cold lateral condensation of gutta-percha. Follow-up assessments will be conducted at 6, 12 and 24 months in both groups. The performance and safety of the sealer PA1704 will also be evaluated at 3.5 and 5 years after surgery. Retroalveolar radiographs will be taken at each study visit. The preoperative, postoperative and follow-up clinical and radiographic data will be analyzed.
