the investigator intended to study the effect of laser versus ultrasonic in activation of irrigation in post operative pain of patients have a symptomatic necrotic teeth

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Unknown

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

the investigator will choose from patients entering clinic of endodontics in faculty of oral and dental medicine Cairo university who are eligible to the criteria.

After the patients is found eligible,the patients will be randomly assigned to either the control (ultrasonic activated irrigation )or to the intervention ( diode laser activated irrigation) treatment done in both in single visit.

At the end of treatment, patients will be asked to record post operative pain by NRS .

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

EXPERIMENTAL: diode laser activated irrigation
Laser-activated irrigation (LAI) has been introduced as a powerful method enhancing irrigant action; The laser radiation produces transient cavitation in the liquid through optical breakdown by strong absorption of the laser energy. The high-power diode laser has been tested in several areas of dentistry such as bleaching, depigmentation and gingivectomy, with promising results in dentinal disinfection. The diode laser has proved to be a resource worth testing, because of the it's properties and its low cost and availability in comparison to most lasers used in endodontics.
Other: diode laser activated irrigation
diode laser became the most common and affordable type of laser used in endodontics for many uses , its disinfection effect is an important issue which not discussed in clinical trial before , So this study is assigned to study that
Other Names:
  • diode laser
ACTIVE_COMPARATOR: ultrasonic activated irrigation

ultrasonics have been developed to improve the penetration and effectiveness of irrigation in peripheral areas of the root canal space. The efficiency of sonic and ultrasonic devices is based on the creation of hydrodynamic phenomenon in well-shaped canals filled with an irrigant.

Such active root canal irrigation has been shown to facilitate the disruption of biofilms and make the cell membrane of bacteria more permeable to NaOCl.
