Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Anesthetic efficiency

    Pain during endodontic treatment will be assessed using a numerical rating scale (NRS). No or mild pain response will be considered success.

    Intraoperative (During endodontic treatment)

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Postoperative pain

    At 6,12, 24, 48 hours after root canal treatment

  • Number of patients requiring rescue analgesic.

    Within 48 hours after endodontic treatment

Study Arms (2)

ketorolac tromethamine

EXPERIMENTAL

One tablet of Ketorolac tromethamine 10-mg one hour before endodontic treatment

Drug: Ketorolac Tromethamine

placebo tablet

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

One tablet of a placebo one hour before endodontic treatment

Drug: Placebo

Interventions

A 10 mg tablet of the medication will be given one hour before starting the root canal treatment

Also known as: ketolac, toradol
ketorolac tromethamine

The placebo given as a tablet one hour before staring the root canal treatment
