enrollment of the patient after diagnosis, radiographic evaluation, and signing the informed consent.

allocation of the patient to either intervention or control group. After anaesthesia and access cavity, the first root canal sample will be taken. Endodontic treatment will be completed in one visit. The second root canal sample will be taken. Patients will be asked to evaluate their postoperative pain level using VAS scale at 6, 12, 24 hours, and daily up to 5 days. Patients will record the number of analgesics if any taken.

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

After diagnosing the case as asymptomatic pulp necrosis and confirming that the patient conforms to all eligibility criteria, (R.S) will enroll the patient in the study.

the operator will complete treatment of all cases in single visit as following:

  1. Anesthetizing the tooth using inferior alveolar nerve block technique
  2. Removal of Caries and/or coronal restorations completely with sterile bur and rubber dam will be applied.
  3. Preparation of access cavity using another sterile round carbide bur size 3 and Endo-z bur .
  4. (R.S) will take the preinstrumentation root canal sample (S1)
  5. Confirming the patency of the root canals using stainless steel hand K-files size #10 and #15 . Working length will be determined .
  6. In the intervention group, (R.S) will perform mechanical preparation in a 3D manner using Xp-endo Shaper single file in an endodontic motor at a speed of 800 rpm and a torque of 1 Ncm.
  7. In the control group, mechanical preparation will be done using rotary iRace files (#25/0.04, #30/0.04, and #40/0.04) at a speed of 600 rpm and a torque of 1.5 Ncm. The canal will be irrigated and recapitulated after the use of each instrument.
  8. EDTA gel will be used as a lubricant. The canals will be thoroughly irrigated using 3ml of 2.5% sodium hypochlorite.
  9. The canal will then be dried by using sterile paper points and then flushed with 5 ml of 5% sodium thiosulfate to inactivate the NaOCl. The postinstrumentation sample (S2) will be taken from the canals.
  10. Master cones will be fitted to the working length and a radiograph will be taken to ensure proper length.
  11. (R.S) will complete obturation using AdSeal resin-based root canal sealer .

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.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Postoperative Pain
Time Frame: up to 5 days
Degree of postoperative pain will be measured by the patients using modified VAS
up to 5 days

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
intracanal bacterial reduction
Time Frame: 6 hours

The intra-canal bacterial count will be determined using culture technique in the microbiological department, Cairo University. Samples in RTF vials will be dispersed with vortex for 30 seconds by the laboratory technician. The RTF solution will be serially diluted one-tenth dilution and spiral plated onto the agar medium. The plates will be incubated at 37ₒc aerobically and anaerobically.

The resultant anaerobic growth will be quantified by evaluating the colony forming units (CFU) on the agar medium under the microscope and the number of CFU per milliliter of each dilution will be calculated for each sample.
6 hours
Incidence of analgesic intake
Time Frame: up to 5 days
In case of presence of moderate or severe postoperative pain, (R.S) will instruct the patients to take only one capsule of placebo given to him/her at the end of the visit (Powdered milk packed in opaque capsules)
up to 5 days
