Abstract
Multilevel modeling is a valid and efficient statistical method in analyzing AP data. The predicted probability of a tooth having AP was generally small, but there was great variation between individuals. Posterior teeth and those with poor quality root filling were found to be more frequently associated with AP. On the patient level, advancing age was a factor significantly associated with AP.
