ClinConnect Summary
This clinical trial is studying how the use of a special device called the XP-Endo Finisher affects pain after root canal treatment for patients with a specific dental condition called symptomatic irreversible pulpitis. The goal is to see if activating a bioceramic sealer with this device helps reduce pain in patients who have severe tooth pain in their lower jaw's first molar. The trial involves 30 participants, divided into two groups: one group will receive the treatment with the XP-Endo Finisher, while the other group will receive the bioceramic sealer without the activation.
To be eligible for this study, participants must be between 18 and 40 years old and have a healthy medical history. They should be experiencing sharp pain in a lower first molar tooth that still has vital (living) pulp tissue. Participants will be asked to understand a simple pain rating scale and provide consent to join the trial. If you are pregnant, have certain health conditions, or have taken specific medications recently, you may not be able to participate. Those who join can expect to undergo root canal treatment and be monitored for any changes in pain afterward. This trial is important as it could lead to better pain management techniques during dental procedures.
