Effect of Turmeric Extract With Black Pepper on Tooth Pain After Root Canal Treatment
EFFECT OF PREOPERATIVE ORAL CURCUMIN WITH PIPERINE ON POSTOPERATIVE PAIN FOLLOWING SINGLE-VISIT PRIMARY ROOT CANAL TREATMENT IN MANDIBULAR MOLARS WITH SYMPTOMATIC IRREVERSIBLE PULPITIS
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of taking a turmeric extract supplement before a root canal to help reduce tooth pain after the procedure.
Patients diagnosed with symptomatic irreversible pulpitis (severe, irreversible tooth nerve inflammation causing significant pain) in their lower back teeth (mandibular molars) will participate in the study. All participants will receive a standard, single visit root canal treatment. Before the procedure begins, one group of patients will receive an oral supplement containing curcumin (the active compound in turmeric) combined with piperine (black pepper extract, which helps the body absorb curcumin). Another group will receive a placebo (an inactive substance).
The investigators will compare the levels of postoperative pain between the two groups in the days following the root canal treatment to see if the turmeric extract supplement successfully provides better pain relief.

Postoperative Pain Score
기간: 24 Hours
|
Postoperative pain will be assessed using a 0-100 mm Visual Analog Scale (VAS), where a score of 0 mm represents "no pain" and a score of 100 mm represents "the worst possible pain." Patients will mark their pain level on a 100 mm line, and higher scores indicate a greater intensity of postoperative pain. |

Rescue Analgesic Consumption
기간: Up to 48 hours post-treatment
|
The total amount of rescue medication taken by the participants will be recorded. Patients will be instructed to take Ibuprofen as needed for severe postoperative pain. The outcome will be measured as the average number of Ibuprofen tablets consumed per participant during the follow up period. A lower tablet count indicates better pain management by the preoperative intervention. |
Up to 48 hours post-treatment
