Comparison Of The Incidence Of Postoperative Pain After Using different Rotary System:A Randomized Clinical Trial

Completed
Conditions
Irreversible Pulpitis
Registration Number
CTRI/2018/02/011652
Lead Sponsor
Dr Kriti Kapoor
Brief Summary

This study is a Randomised Clinical Trial to evaluate and compare postoperative pain using single file, two file and multiple file rotary systems.This study also compares the time taken to prepare the canal using single file, two file and multiple file rotary system.It also compares the quantity of analgesics taken by the patient after treatment till 7 days using these three different rotary file systems.The trial will be conducted on patients falling in the inclusion criteria at SGT Dental College, Hospital and Research Institute, Gurgaon, Haryana in India. Post operative pain will be rated by the patient after 24 hrs, 48 hrs, 72 hrs and after 7 days on Heft Parker Scale.The study includes mandibular molars of patients aged between 20 to 45 years with irreversible pulpitis having no systemic disease. Also teeth with periapical lesion, endodontic retreatment cases, sinus tracts, apical periodontitis, root resorption, open apex cases will be excluded from the study. The primary outcome of the study is comparison of postoperative pain and secondary outcomes are analgesic intake by the patient, if any and comparing treatment time using three different rotary systems.
