Root canal treatment has become a routine procedure in daily dental practice. Successful RCT is characterised by the absence of clinical signs and symptoms and without abnormalities in periodontal tissues on radiographic evaluation. The RCT procedure is also a success factor in endodontic treatment, including the choice of treatment plan whether one-visit endodontic or multi-vi-sit endodontic which is still controversial. This literature review compares OVE and MVE which have been controversial treat-ment options in recent years both based on treatment success rates, advantages and disadvantages of each procedure as well as factors that influence the success of both treatments. It was concluded that RCT, OVE and MVE have no significant difference in their success rates.
