NCT04935736

Brief Summary

The study design is a multicentric randomized controlled clinical trial. 238 subjects (teeth) requiring a primary or a secondary root canal treatment will be enrolled in 2 groups (119 in each group). The aim is to assess the effectiveness and utility of the ancillary drug substance, prednisolone acetate (1%) contained in CORTISOMOL SP (Zinc Oxide/Eugenol-type sealer) to help to decrease the possible postoperative painful reactions after root canal treatment. SEALITE REGULAR, which has a similar formulation except it is prednisolone acetate-free, is used as the comparator sealer. Procedures of root canal treatment will be conventional and standardized for all investigational centers. The canals will be cleaned, shaped and then obturated using a Zinc oxide/Eugenol-type sealer (CORTISOMOL SP or SEALITE REGULAR) and gutta-percha. Patients assess their pain for 7 days after permanent root canal obturation.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Post-operative pain assessed by a VAS

    The pain is assessed by patients in a diary using a Visual Analogue Scale (range from 0 (= no pain) to 100 (= the worst pain)) at different times after endodontic treatment from the end of the root canal obturation to Day 7. The maximum pain felt will be compared between the 2 groups.

    From the end of the root canal treatment (Day 0) to Day 7

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Use of oral pain treatment

    From the end of the root canal treatment (Day 0) to Day 7

  • Number of adverse events

    From the end of the root canal treatment (Day 0) to the end of follow-up visit (Day 14)

Study Arms (2)

CORTISOMOL SP

EXPERIMENTAL

Zinc oxide/Eugenol-type sealer containing 1% Prednisolone Acetate. The sealer is used in combination with gutta percha points for the permanent obturation of root canals.

Device: root canal sealer : CORTISOMOL SP

SEALITE REGULAR

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

The Zinc oxide/Eugenol-type sealer is used in combination with gutta percha points for the permanent obturation of root canals.

Device: root canal sealer : SEALITE REGULAR

Interventions

The participant will be treated with CORTISOMOL SP sealer in combination with gutta percha.

CORTISOMOL SP
