Evaluation of coronal strain in molar teeth

Not yet recruiting

• Conditions: Pulpitis,

• Registration Number: CTRI/2023/09/057922
• Lead Sponsor: Dr Muralidaran S

Brief Summary

This study aimed to evaluate bite force and strain alterations under occlusal load in mandibular terminal molar teeth before and after root canal treatment and intact contralateral molar with one and two contacts. Terminal mandibular molar with irreversible pulpitis is taken as test tooth and intact contralateral molar is taken as control teeth. Coronal microstrain and Bite force is evaluated before and after root canal treatment.
