Efficacy of Block Injection of an Anti Inflammatory Medicine in Patients With Mandibular Dental Pain
- Conditions
- Symptomatic Irreversible Pulpitis
- Interventions
- Behavioral: Sham injection
- Registration Number
- NCT03410212
- Lead Sponsor
- Azad University of Medical Sciences
- Brief Summary
The aim of this study is to determine whether inferior alveolar nerve block of ketorolac and lidocaine would improve the success rate in teeth with symptomatic irreversible Pulpitis.
Design: In this randomized double-blind clinical trial, sixty healthy adult volunteers with including criteria have been randomly divided into two groups (n=30). Following the 5 minutes of the first IANB using 1.8 ml 2% lidocaine 2% containing 1:100000, the patients of case group have received a standard inferior alveolar nerve block injection that used 1 ml ketorolac tromethamine 30 mg/ml. The patients of the control group received a sham injection. After achieving the lip numbness, access preparation initiated after 15 minutes of initial IANB with two negative responses to the electric pulp test. Any pain during caries and dentin removal, access cavity preparation, and root canal preparation have been recorded using analog visual scale (HP-VAS). The success was considered as none or mild pain during treatment. The data have been analyzed using Mann-U-Whitney test.
Intervention main outcome measures: Pain during caries and dentin removal access cavity preparation, and root canal preparation using VAS.
- Detailed Description
The aim of this study is to determine whether inferior alveolar nerve block of ketorolac and lidocaine would improve the success rate in teeth with symptomatic irreversible Pulpitis. Design: In this randomized double-blind clinical trial, sixty healthy adult volunteers with including criteria have been randomly divided into two groups (n=30). All patients have been received standard inferior alveolar nerve block injection that used 1.8 ml 2% lidocaine 2% containing 1:100000 after negative aspiration. After 5 minutes 30 patients have received a standard inferior alveolar nerve block injection that used 1 ml ketorolac tromethamine 30 mg/ml. the other 30 patients received a sham injection. After achieving the lip numbness, the pulp anesthesia has been evaluated after 5 minutes by using electric pulp tester (Pakell Inc, Edgewood, NY). Endodontic access preparation initiated after 15 minutes of initial IANB with two negative responses to the electric pulp test. Any pain during caries and dentin removal, access cavity preparation, and root canal preparation have been recorded using analog visual scale (HP-VAS). The success was considered as none or mild pain during treatment. The data have been analyzed using Mann-U-Whitney test.Participants including major eligibility criteria: all patients with symptomatic irreversible pulpitis (HP VAS ≥54) of a mandibular molar tooth without systemic diseases; nonsmoking; without any medicine consumption or analgesic and sedation Intervention Main outcome measures: Pain during caries and dentin removal, access cavity preparation, and root canal preparation using VAS.

Group Intervention Description No injection Sham injection In the control group, 5 minutes following the IANB, the sham injection will be provided at the same place of the first injection. Ketorolac Tromethanine Ketorolac Tromethamine In the experimental group, 30mg/mL, ketorolac tromethamine will be injected as same as the first IANB and 5 minutes following it.
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method pain during the root canal treatment Average of 1 year Any pain during caries/dentin removal, access cavity and root canal preparation will be evaluated using 170 mm visual analog scale. Lack of pain or pain equal or less than 54 will be deemed success of anesthesia.
