Prevalence of unculturable bacteria in the periapical abscess: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

<h4>Objective</h4>To assess the prevalence of unculturable bacteria in periapical abscess, radicular cyst, and periapical granuloma.<h4>Methods</h4>PubMed, Scopus, Science Direct, and Ovid databases were systematically searched from January 1990 to May 2020. All the included...
