Antimicrobial Efficacy of NaOCl and PDT in Primary Root Canal Treatment (PDT-NaOCl)
27. juni 2026 opdateret af: Bayan Alqrenawi
A Comparison Study of the Antimicrobial Efficacy of Sodium Hypochlorite and Sodium Hypochlorite Supplemented With Photodynamic Therapy in Eliminating Bacteria in Primary Root Canal Treatment: An In Vivo Study
This clinical study will compare different root canal disinfection methods used during primary root canal treatment.
Root canal infection is mainly caused by bacteria inside the root canal system.
Sodium hypochlorite is commonly used as a root canal irrigant because it helps reduce bacteria.
Photodynamic therapy is an additional disinfection method that uses a photosensitizing solution and light activation to help kill bacteria.
Participants who need primary root canal treatment will be randomly assigned to one of the study groups.
The study will compare sodium hypochlorite irrigation alone with sodium hypochlorite supplemented with photodynamic therapy.
Additional comparison groups will be used to assess the antimicrobial effect of the disinfection procedures.
Bacterial samples will be collected from the root canals before and after the assigned disinfection protocol to measure the reduction in bacterial counts.
The main outcome of the study is the reduction in intracanal bacterial load after the disinfection procedure.
Postoperative pain will also be assessed using a visual analogue scale at selected time points after treatment.
All participants will receive standard root canal treatment, and the final clinical disinfection and treatment procedures will be completed according to accepted endodontic practice.

Detaljeret beskrivelse
This is an in vivo randomized clinical study designed to evaluate the antimicrobial effect of root canal disinfection protocols during primary root canal treatment.
The study focuses on the reduction of viable intracanal bacteria following irrigation with sodium hypochlorite, with or without adjunctive photodynamic therapy.
Eligible participants requiring primary root canal treatment will be enrolled and randomly allocated to one of the study groups according to the approved protocol.
Under rubber dam isolation, root canal treatment will be performed using standard endodontic procedures.
Intracanal microbiological samples will be collected using sterile paper points before and after the assigned disinfection protocol.
The collected samples will be processed for culture-based microbiological analysis, and bacterial reduction will be assessed by comparing viable bacterial counts before and after the intervention.
Photodynamic therapy will be used as an adjunctive disinfection method in the relevant study group.
This technique involves the use of a photosensitizing agent followed by activation with light of an appropriate wavelength to produce an antimicrobial effect.
Sodium hypochlorite irrigation will be used as the standard chemical disinfection method.
For ethical and clinical safety reasons, all participants will receive completion of treatment according to accepted endodontic standards.
Postoperative pain will be recorded after treatment using a visual analogue scale.
The study is intended to determine whether adding photodynamic therapy to sodium hypochlorite improves intracanal bacterial reduction compared with sodium hypochlorite irrigation alone during primary root canal treatment.

Change in Intracanal Bacterial Load
Tidsramme: From baseline intracanal sampling before the assigned disinfection protocol to immediately after completion of the assigned disinfection protocol during the same root canal treatment visit.
|
Intracanal bacterial load will be assessed using culture-based microbiological analysis of root canal samples collected with sterile paper points.
Viable bacterial counts will be expressed as log10 colony-forming units (CFU).
The primary outcome will be the reduction in bacterial load, calculated as the difference between baseline log10 CFU and post-disinfection log10 CFU values.
