Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Apical Periodontitis
Assessment, Pain
Dental Pulp Necrosis
Registration Number
NCT02929511
Lead Sponsor
Isparta Military Hospital
Brief Summary

In this study, the researchers will investigate the effect of single-file reciprocating versus single-file rotational file systems on the postoperative pain in adult patients who have necrotic pulp and apical periodontitis. The participants will be assigned by chance to separate groups that compare 2 different treatments, reciprocating single-file system (Reciproc Blue) and rotational single-file system (OneShape). As a reference, Mtwo multi-file (full-sequence) will be used.

Detailed Description

The infected root canal treatments will be performed using one-visit approach with either a reciprocating single-file system or a continuous rotational single-file system. (Reciproc Blue reciprocating single-file system vs OneShape rotational single-file system). The root canals will be completed in single-visit. The patients will record their postoperative pain during the follow-up period using a VAS scale.
