Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Clinical and radiographic success

    long term clinical and radiographic success measured in terms of reduction in size of periapical radiolucency on radiograph from baseline to 12 months using PAI score 1,2 as healing and more than 2 as non healing

    12 months

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Number of canals located in MB root

    12 months

Study Arms (2)

Experimental group

EXPERIMENTAL

Nonsurgical Root canal therapy was performed using dental operating microscope in the experimental group.

Procedure: Nonsurgical Root canal therapyDevice: Dental operating microscope

Control group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Nonsurgical Root canal therapy was performed without any magnification aid in control group.

Procedure: Nonsurgical Root canal therapy

Interventions

After administration of LA and rubber dam isolation, acess cavity was prepared using carbide burs. Working length was determined using root ZX apex locator and was verified radiographically. Canal preparation was done with protaper gold rotary instruments. 5ml of 5.25% NaOCl was used as irrigant. After instrumentation , the canals were irrigated with 5.0 ml of 17% EDTA for 1minute followed by irrigation with 5.0 ml of 5.25% NaOCl. Canals were dried with absorbent paper points, filled with calcium hydroxide paste and access cavity was restored with IRM.At the recall appointment ; after one week,paste removal, copious irrigation was done with 5.25% NaOCl and canals were dried with paper points. Canals were obturated with Gutta-Percha and ZOE based sealer.

Control groupExperimental group

Dental operating microscope; a high magnification and illumination device was used in experimental group for performing nonsurgical root canal therapy.
