Comparative Evaluation of Post Operative pain, Radiographic and Clinical successes of 1% Sodium hypochlorite and 3% Sodium hypochlorite used as irrigants during Pulpectomy: A Split Mouth Double Blinded Randomized Control Trial

In this split-mouth, double-blinded randomized control trial, we aimed to compare the efficacy of two different concentrations of sodium hypochlorite, 1% and 3%, as irrigants during pulpectomy procedures. The study will assess post-operative pain, radiographic success, and clinical outcomes in patients with similar pulp pathologies. Both patients and the observer were blinded to the sodium hypochlorite concentration used on each side of the mouth to minimize bias. Post-operative pain was evaluated using standardized pain scales; radiographic success was determined through pre-operative and post-operative radiographs taken at an interval of 3 months, 6 months, 9 months, and 12 months; and clinical success was assessed through clinical examinations and patient-reported outcomes at an interval of 3 months, 6 months, 9 months, and 12 months. The results of this trial will provide valuable insights into the impact of sodium hypochlorite concentration on the overall success of pulpectomy, aiding pedodontists in making informed decisions regarding the choice of irrigation solution for improved patient outcomes and quality of care.
