Comparison of Triple Antibiotic Paste With Combination of Chitosan and Calcium Hydroxide as a Root Canal Disinfectant
- Conditions
- Periapical Abscess
- Interventions
- Drug: root canal treatment and intracanal medicament
- Registration Number
- NCT04319575
- Lead Sponsor
- Dr. D. Y. Patil Dental College & Hospital
- Brief Summary
Investigators observed the clinical and radiographic healing of periapical lesion using Chitosan mixed with calcium hydroxide and compared it with triple antibiotic paste when used as intracanal medicament in 3months, 6 months and 12 months.
- Detailed Description
Aim: To evaluate and compare the healing of periapical lesions using chitosan mixed with calcium hydroxide or Triple Antibiotic Paste at 3,6 and 12 months.
Methodology:
20 adult patients having periapical lesions in single rooted teeth were selected in this study after being assessed using the PAI index. Patients were randomly assigned to: Group - I (n=10) Chitosan with Ca (OH)2 and Group -II (n=10) Triple Antibiotic paste (TAP)
After access opening and cleaning and shaping were done in the first visit, the pertinent intracanal medicaments were placed depending on the patient group. After 4 weeks, on the second visit, the medicament was removed andobturation was done in the asymptomatic teeth. Both clinical and radiographic endodontic evaluation was done at 0, 3, 6 and 12months using the same parameters.
Radiographic evaluation was done using the PAI Index and was compared at 0, 3, 6, and 12 months after treatment, Z Test.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method healing of periapical lesion change in PAI index from baseline to 3 months, baseline to 6 months and baseline to 12 months the periapical status will be assessed by using the periapical index \[PAI\] using radiographs and scoring was done according to following scoring index as
1. Normal periapical structures
2. Small changes in bone structure
3. Changes in bone structure with some mineral loss
4. Periodontitis with well-defined radiolucent area
5. Severe periodontitis with exacerbating features
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method patient pain perception 3months, 6months and 12 months pain will be assessed using visual analogue (VAS )scale along with any swelling following scale of -10 with 0 score depicts no pain and score 10 depicts severe pain
