Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (4)

  • bacterial reduction

    pre-instrumentation and post-instrumentation bacterial cultures to detect change in bacterial count after root canal instrumentation with the different kinematics

    up to 1 hour

  • post operative pain

    Visual analogue scale from 0-100 where 0 is the lowest and 100 is the highest

    after the treatment visit by 24 hours

  • post operative pain

    Visual analogue scale from 0-100 where 0 is the lowest and 100 is the highest

    after the treatment visit by 48 hours

  • post operative pain

    Visual analogue scale from 0-100 where 0 is the lowest and 100 is the highest

    after the treatment visit by 72 hours
