Study Overview
Brief Summary
AIM: Evaluation of anaesthetic efficacy of cryotherapy application as an adjunct to articaine in patients with symptomatic irreversible pulpitis.OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the anaesthetic efficacy of 4% articaine in IANB as compared to buccal infiltration techniques. To compare the anaesthetic efficacy of cryotherapy as an adjunct to articaine and determine the best technique that provide maximum success in patients with symptomatic irreversible pulpitis.MATERIALS AND METHOD The proposed study will be conducted at Department of Conservative Dentistry and Endodontics, Faculty of Dental Sciences, SGT University, Gurugram, Haryana after the approval from the ethical committee.PATIENT SELECTION: GROUP 1 (n 15) Inferior alveolar nerve block with articaine. GROUP 2 (n 15) Inferior alveolar nerve block with articaine plus application of ice stick in the pulp chamber. GROUP 3 (n 15) Buccal infiltration with articaine plus application of ice stick in the pulp chamber.There is paucity of clinical studies in evaluating the anaesthetic efficacy of cryotherapy application as an adjunct to articaine in patients with symptomatic irreversible pulpitis. Thus, the purpose of current randomized controlled trial is evaluation of anaesthetic efficacy of cryotherapy application as an adjunct to articaine in patients with symptomatic irreversible pulpitis. RESULTS: On going research CONCLUSION: On going research
