Overview
Brief Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the post operative pain after using three different instrumentation techniques in pulpectomy treatment of pediatric participant. The main question it aims to answer:
If different instrumentation techniques will affect the post operative pain in pulpectomy treatment of primary molars ? Participants will evaluate the pain using Modified Wong baker pain rating scale.
Researchers will compare [ the adaptive XP endo shaper, Fanta AF baby files, and hand K files] to see if they will affect the post operative pain.

Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria
- •Cooperative children free from systemic diseases.

- •Teeth with necrotic pulp.
- •Teeth should have 2/3 of the remaining roots.
Exclusion Criteria
- •Children taking medications up to six hours before the treatment.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Assessment of post-operative pain after pulpectomy treatment in primary teeth
Time Frame: one week
Assessment of post-operative pain using Modified Wong-baker pain rating scale. It is 4-point scale measures pain as: * Score zero - no pain. * Score one - slight pain. * Score two - moderate pain. Score three - severe pain. so ( score 0 is the best score \& score 3 is the worst) These data will be recorded at intervals of 6, 12, 24, 72 hours, and one week. A telephonic communication will be done with the parents by the second assessor who will be blinded to the treatment protocol at 6, 12, 72 hours to assess the pain, and the patients will be given two appointments, first after 24 hours and the second after one week from the operating day. During both visits, the second assessor will collect the results of the pain assessment from the child's parent and will cross-check all the results to ensure that the reported values are consistent.
