ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is looking at how different types of root canal sealers affect pain after treatment in patients with a specific dental condition called irreversible pulpitis. This condition means that the pulp, or the soft tissue inside the tooth, is inflamed and causing discomfort. The study aims to see if the type of sealing material used during the root canal affects how much pain patients might feel afterward.

To be eligible for this trial, participants should have a healthy mature first or second molar tooth that is not currently causing any symptoms but has shown some signs of pulp inflammation during tests. Certain individuals, such as those who are diabetic, pregnant, or have had antibiotics recently, will not be able to participate. If you decide to join the study, you can expect to receive treatment and then be monitored for any pain afterward to help researchers understand the best materials for root canals.
