Effect of Different Irrigation Solutions on Postoperative Pain and Lesion Healing

April 24, 2024 updated by: Ipek Eraslan Akyuz, TC Erciyes University

Evaluation of the Effects of Different Irrigation Solutions Used in Regenerative Endodontic Treatment of Lower Molars With Open Necrotic Apexes on Postoperative Pain and Lesion Healing

In this study researchers plan to conduct, three different irrigation solutions that are responsible for the release of growth factors necessary for the success of regenerative endodontic treatments will be used. These solutions; Ethylene Diamine Tetra Acetic Acid (EDTA), Etidronic Acid and Citric Acid. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of different irrigation solutions used in regenerative endodontic treatment of necrotic open apex molar teeth on postoperative pain. Additionally, the healing of these teeth will be monitored for 1 year.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Root canal treatment is a treatment method applied to milk and permanent teeth. The inflamed and necrotic pulp where the root canal is located is cleaned, debrided chemo-mechanically, and finally filled hermetically with a biocompatible material. Necrotic immature teeth lose their restorative and defensive abilities. Since the root canal walls of these teeth are thin and weak, regenerative endodontic procedures are applied more frequently in the treatment of immature teeth to ensure root development and to restore the vitality of the pulp tissue. In this study researchers plan to conduct, three different irrigation solutions that are responsible for the release of growth factors necessary for the success of regenerative endodontic treatments will be used. These solutions; Ethylene Diamine Tetra Acetic Acid (EDTA), Etidronic Acid and Citric Acid. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of different irrigation solutions used in regenerative endodontic treatment of necrotic open apex molar teeth on postoperative pain. Additionally, the healing of these teeth will be monitored for 1 year.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Active Comparator: Ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA)
Regenerative endodontic treatments require the use of irrigation solutions to break down inorganic and organic tissue residues in the root canals. Sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) and Ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA)will be used when disinfecting root canals. (GROUP 1)
Regenerative endodontic treatment using different irrigation solutions
Active Comparator: CITRIC ACID (MONO/ANH)
Regenerative endodontic treatments require the use of irrigation solutions to break down inorganic and organic tissue residues in the root canals. Sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) and CITRIC ACID (MONO/ANH) be used when disinfecting root canals. (GROUP 2)
Regenerative endodontic treatment using different irrigation solutions
Active Comparator: ETİDRONİC ACID (HEBP)
Regenerative endodontic treatments require the use of irrigation solutions to break down inorganic and organic tissue residues in the root canals. Sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) and ETİDRONİC ACID (HEBP) be used when disinfecting root canals. (GROUP 3)

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Determining and recording pain levels on the pain scale between treatment sessions
Time Frame: 2 weeks
Evaluations close to 100 on the postoperative pain scale indicate that the severity of pain increases. Evaluations close to 0 indicate that the severity of pain has decreased.
2 weeks

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
In the follow-up sessions after the treatment, the size of the lesion in the bone (mm2) is measured by radiography.
Time Frame: 2 years
Evaluations close to 100 on the scale following lesion healing indicate that the lesion size has increased. Evaluations close to 0 indicate that the lesion size has decreased.
2 years
