NCT03792217

Brief Summary

The aim of this prospective, randomized, clinical trial was to evaluate the effect of 1.3% sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) concentration versus 5.25% NaOCl concentration on post-operative pain and medication intake in adult patients with pulp necrosis in mandibular molars.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (6)

  • Postoperative pain using a pain-measuring scale

    Postoperative pain is measured using the Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) which is an 11-point scale from 0-10 where 0 represents no pain and 10 represents the worst pain measured immediately after the first visit

    immediately after treatment

  • Postoperative pain using a pain-measuring scale

    Postoperative pain is measured using the Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) which is an 11-point scale from 0-10 where 0 represents no pain and 10 represents the worst pain measured 3 hours after the first visit

    3 hours

  • Postoperative pain using a pain-measuring scale

    Postoperative pain is measured using the Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) which is an 11-point scale from 0-10 where 0 represents no pain and 10 represents the worst pain measured 24 hours after the first visit

    24 hours

  • Postoperative pain using a pain-measuring scale

    Postoperative pain is measured using the Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) which is an 11-point scale from 0-10 where 0 represents no pain and 10 represents the worst pain measured 48 hours after the first visit

    48 hours

  • Postoperative pain using a pain-measuring scale

    Postoperative pain is measured using the Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) which is an 11-point scale from 0-10 where 0 represents no pain and 10 represents the worst pain measured 7 days after the first visit

    7 days

  • Postoperative pain using a pain-measuring scale

    Postoperative pain is measured using the Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) which is an 11-point scale from 0-10 where 0 represents no pain and 10 represents the worst pain measured immediately after obturation.

    immediately after obturation
