Complete removal of the infected coronal and radicular pulp tissue along with obturation of the canal space with suitable medication is defined as pulpectomy. The most common indication for pulpectomy is a tooth with irreversible pulpitis which shows symptoms of nocturnal pain and abscess. To determine the average time in appointments for multivisit pulpectomy in patients reported to a university dental hospital. It is planned as a retrospective analysis of the case records of patients who were treated as two visit pulpectomy procedures in a university dental hospital, India. The study concluded that in the majority of the situations the average time in between appointments for multivisit pulpectomy was found to be within 1 week.
