Gedetailleerde beschrijving
Acute apical abscess is an endodontic infection characterized by localized inflammation, pain, swelling, and purulent exudate. Although chemomechanical root canal preparation substantially reduces the bacterial load, microorganisms may remain within the root canal system. Intracanal medicaments are therefore used between treatment sessions to improve microbial reduction.
In this randomized, parallel-group clinical trial, teeth diagnosed with acute apical abscess are allocated to receive either a calcium hydroxide intracanal medicament or a calcium silicate-based intracanal medicament. All teeth undergo standardized root canal treatment and irrigation procedures.
Microbiological samples are collected at three main treatment stages: before chemomechanical preparation, after chemomechanical preparation and irrigation, and after a 7- to 10-day intracanal medication period. Bacterial DNA is analyzed using SYBR Green Real-Time PCR. Universal 16S rRNA primers are used to quantify the total bacterial load. Selected bacterial species associated with endodontic infections are also evaluated.
The primary outcome is the change in total bacterial load between the post-instrumentation sample and the sample collected after intracanal medication. Secondary outcomes include changes in selected bacterial species and bacterial levels across the different sampling stages. The study aims to determine and compare the microbial effectiveness of the two intracanal medicaments in acute apical abscess cases.

Change in Total Bacterial Load After Intracanal Medication
Tijdsspanne: From immediately after chemomechanical preparation to 7 to 10 days after intracanal medicament placement
|
Total bacterial load will be quantified using universal 16S rRNA gene-based Real-Time PCR in samples collected after chemomechanical root canal preparation (S2) and after the 7- to 10-day intracanal medication period (S3).
The antibacterial effect will be evaluated as the change in log10 bacterial load from S2 to S3 and compared between the two intervention groups.

Changes in the Levels of Selected Endodontic Bacterial Species
Tijdsspanne: From before chemomechanical preparation to 7 to 10 days after intracanal medicament placement

The levels of Fusobacterium nucleatum, Prevotella intermedia, Porphyromonas endodontalis, Parvimonas micra, Treponema denticola, Streptococcus anginosus, Dialister pneumosintes, Campylobacter rectus, Filifactor alocis, and Olsenella uli will be evaluated using species-specific Real-Time PCR.
Changes between the samples collected before chemomechanical preparation (S1), after chemomechanical preparation (S2), and after intracanal medication (S3) will be assessed and compared between the intervention groups.

Change in Total Bacterial Load After Chemomechanical Preparation
Tijdsspanne: From before to immediately after chemomechanical root canal preparation during the first treatment visit
|
Total bacterial load will be quantified using universal 16S rRNA gene-based Real-Time PCR in samples collected before chemomechanical root canal preparation (S1) and immediately after chemomechanical preparation (S2).
The change in log10 bacterial load from S1 to S2 will be evaluated to determine the bacterial reduction achieved by the standardized chemomechanical preparation protocol.
