About this study

Official title: Incidence of Post-operative Pain After Single-visit Versus Two-visit Root Canal Treatment of Teeth With Necrotic Pulp and Apical Periodontitis

Aim :to compare incidence of post-operative pain and apical healing after single-visit versus two-visit root canal treatment of teeth with necrotic pulp and apical periodontitis.

Read the detailed description

Aim to compare incidence of post-operative pain and apical healing after single-visit versus two-visit root canal treatment of teeth with necrotic pulp and apical periodontitis.

Methodology: All teeth of the one and two-visit group were asymptomatic (92) and symptomatic (18) with a diagnosis of pulp necrosis (RCT cases) determined by hot and cold sensitivity tests and radiographically all teeth showed a small and irregular radiolucency at the tooth apex. Working length was established with EAL and confirmed radiographically. Reciprocating files (VDW, Munich Germany) were used to complete root canal preparation. EDTA served as a lubricant.
