- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method The degree of success is measured using the American Association of Endodontists' criterion at baseline and 12 months
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method <br> The following secondary outcome measures were assessed at baseline and 12 months:<br> 1. Pain on biting is measured by asking the patient if it is present or absent<br> 2. Pain on percussion is measured by tapping the tooth with a mirror<br> 3. Soft tissue swelling is measured using visual examination<br> 4. Sinus tract is measured using visual examination<br> 5. Mobility is measured by applying pressure with two metal instruments<br> 6. Pulp sensitivity is measured using Ethyl Chloride spray<br> 7. Root length is measured radiographically using Image J software<br> 8. Root thickness is measured radiographically using Image J software<br> 9. The area of the periapical lesion is measured radiographically using Image J software<br>
