CorrectionWe thank KG Issacson for bringing to our attention an error that appeared in the definitions of acute apical abscess (AAA) and acute apical periodontitis (AAP) in Clinical practice guideline on emergency management of acute apical periodontitis (AAP) in adults. Evid Based Dent 2004; 5:7 and Clinical practice guideline on treatment of acute apical abscess (AAA) in adults. Evid Based Dent 2004; 5:8.
