NCT04035070

Brief Summary

• The aim of this study is to compare the degree of postoperative pain and the antimicrobial effect in terms of bacterial count reduction after using co-amoxiclav-clindamycin solution versus MTAD and sodium hypochlorite irrigating solutions in patients with necrotic pulp.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • postoperative pain: numerical rating scale

    intensity of pain by numerical rating scale from 0 to 10

    up to 48 hours after the first visit

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • intra-canal bacterial count

    72 hours after root canal preparation

Study Arms (3)

Root canal irrigation with co-amoxiclav-clindamycin solution

EXPERIMENTAL

Alternate irrigation with 1 mL antibiotic-containing solution followed by 4 mL 2.5% sodium hypochlorite solution between each size instrument and the consequent one. The antibiotic-containing solution will be prepared by mixing equal quantities of 1.2 gm Co-amoxiclav solution and 600 mg Clindamycin solution at a ratio of 1:1 by volume.

Combination Product: co-amoxiclav-clindamycin solution

Root canal irrigation with MTAD

EXPERIMENTAL

Irrigation with 5 mL MTAD irrigating solution for 5 minutes between each size instrument and the consequent one.

Combination Product: MTAD

Root canal irrigation with 2.5% sodium hypochlorite

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Irrigation with 5 mL 2.5% sodium hypochlorite irrigating solution between each size instrument and the consequent one.

Combination Product: 2.5% sodium hypochlorite

Interventions

antibiotic-containing solution will be prepared by mixing equal quantities of 1.2gm Co-amoxiclav solution and 600mg Clindamycin solution at a ratio of 1:1 by volume to be used as a root canal irrigating solution

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 50 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersYes
Age GroupsAdult (18-64)

You may qualify if:

  • Maxillary/mandibular single-rooted permanent teeth:
  • Diagnosed clinically with pulp necrosis.
  • Absence of spontaneous pain.
  • Normal/slight widening in the periodontal membrane space (PMS).
  • Patients' acceptance to participate in the trial.
  • Patients who can understand numerical rating scale (NRS) and can sign the informed consent.

You may not qualify if:

  • Medically compromised patients: Pain levels and healing following treatment would be compromised as these patients show higher incidence of pain and lower healing rate.
  • Patients with known allergy to penicillin or penicillin derivatives.
  • Pregnant females: Avoid radiation exposure, anesthesia, and medication.
  • If analgesics or antibiotics have been administrated by the patient during the past 24 hours preoperatively: Might alter their pain perception.
  • Patients reporting bruxism or clenching: Avoid further pressure on an already inflamed tooth inducing subsequent irritation and inflammation.
  • Teeth that show association with acute periapical abscess and swelling: Need special treatment steps which could involve additional visits with incision and drainage. Also, it could influence initiation and progression of postoperative pain.
  • Greater than grade I mobility or pocket depth greater than 5mm. Need special surgical and/or periodontal therapy.
  • Non-restorable teeth.
  • Immature teeth.
  • Radiographic evidence of periapical radiolucency, external or internal root resorption, vertical root fracture, perforation or calcification.
