简要总结
The goal of this clinical trial was to evaluate the effect of cryotreated sodium hypochlorite solution on the intensity of postoperative pain in root canal treatment procedures in mandibular first molar teeth with symptomatic irreversible pulpitis. The main question it aims to answer is:
- Does controlled irrigation with cold sodium hypochlorite in root canal treatment reduce the severity of postoperative pain? In the cryotreated NaOCl group, unlike the normal NaOCl group, the root canals were irrigated with 2 °C NaOCl solution.
详细描述
Various irrigation solutions that are effective for organic and inorganic tissues are used during root canal treatment. Sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) is the most commonly used irrigation solution. It has antibacterial and physicochemical properties 20 and is unique in dissolving organic tissues 21. NaOCl irrigation combined with mechanical instrumentation has been consistently shown to substantially reduce the microorganism load in root canals 22. There have been several attempts to increase the antimicrobial efficacy of NaOCl in the root canal system, such as changing its concentration, increasing the contact time with the dentin walls of the root canal, increasing the total volume of irrigation, increasing its temperature, and using manual or mechanical activation methods 3, 23. These methods to increase the efficacy of NaOCl can also result in heightened toxic effects on periapical tissues owing to the tissue-irritating properties of the solution. This extrusion into the periapical region increases postoperative pain, especially in teeth with open apices and necrotic pulps 21, 24. Therefore, instead of using high concentrations of NaOCl, which could increase its toxic effects, safer means, such as increasing its temperature and using it in large volumes, may increase its efficacy 21, 25.
Therefore, ascertaining the clinical impact of cryotreated NaOCl on postoperative pain is essential. The temperature of the irrigation solution is known to affect postoperative pain, and final irrigation with cold saline significantly reduces postoperative pain levels 19, 26. However, studies investigating the effects of cryotreated NaOCl, which is used in all stages of root canal treatment, and using NaOCl at concentrations of 2.5% and 5% on postoperative pain are lacking. This randomized clinical trial investigated the effects of cryotreated 2.5% and 5% NaOCl on postoperative pain during endodontic treatment procedures in mandibular first molars with symptomatic irreversible pulpitis.

研究组 & 干预措施
Cryotreated %2.5 NaOCl
A total of 45 ml of 2.5% NaOCl cooled to 2 °C in the refrigerator was placed in 2.5 ml syringes. The syringes were placed in a cold storage box to maintain the temperature during use. The box was filled with ice and the temperature was verified at 2 °C with a digital thermometer. During the root canal preparation, each canal was irrigated with a total of 10 ml of 2.5% NaOCl at 2 °C. The procedure was completed by using 5 ml of 2.5% NaOCl at 2.5 °C, 2 ml of saline, 2 mL of 17% EDTA and 2 ml of saline for each root canal, respectively, as the final irrigation solution.
干预措施: Cryotherapy (Other)
Normal %2.5 NaOCl
45 milliliters (ml) of 2.5% NaOCl was placed in a glass container at room temperature and the temperature was monitored with a digital thermometer to ensure that it remained at 25 °C. During root canal preparation, each canal was irrigated with a total of 10 ml of 25 °C 2.5% NaOCl. The procedure was completed by using 5 ml of 25 °C 2.5% NaOCl, 2 ml of saline, 2 ml of 17% EDTA and 2 ml of saline for each root canal, respectively, as the final irrigation solution.
干预措施: Control (Standard treatment) (Other)
Cryotreated %5 NaOCl
A total of 45 ml of 5% NaOCl cooled to 2 °C in the refrigerator was placed in 2.5 ml syringes. The syringes were placed in a cold storage box to maintain the temperature during use. The box was filled with ice and the temperature was verified at 2 °C with a digital thermometer. During the root canal preparation, each canal was irrigated with a total of 10 ml of 5% NaOCl at 2 °C. As the final irrigation solution, 5 ml of 5% NaOCl at 2 °C, 2 ml of saline, 2 mL of 17% EDTA and 2 ml of saline were used for each root canal, respectively, to complete the procedure.

结局指标
主要结局
Visual Analogue Scale
时间窗: up to 72 hours
The visual analog scale for pain is a straight line with one end meaning no pain (0) and the other end meaning the worst pain (10) imaginable. A patient marks a point on the line that matches the amount of pain he or she feels. It may be used to help choose the right dose of pain medicine. Also called VAS.
