Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Healing of periapical lesion
Healing of periapical lesion will be assessed clinically normalcy including incidence of pain on percussion, swelling and sinus tract , aslo will be assed 2 dimensionally and 3 dimensionally using CBCT
1 year follow up
Secondary Outcomes (1)
postoperative pain
1 week
Study Arms (2)
injectable platelet rich fibrin with Vitamin C
EXPERIMENTALInjectable platelet rich fibrin: 10-mL sample of whole venous blood will be drawn from the patient's forearm and transferred into two plain plastic test tubes without an anticoagulant and will centrifuge immediately at 700 rpm for 3 minutes (60×g) . After centrifugation, the upper yellow fluid liquid (i-PRF) will be collected as close as possible to the layer of red cells the will be mixed with 250 micromole of Vitamin C.
Injectable platelet rich fibrin alone
ACTIVE COMPARATORinjectable platelet rich fibrin: 10-mL sample of whole venous blood will be drawn from the patient's forearm and transferred into two plain plastic test tubes without an anticoagulant and will centrifuge immediately at 700 rpm for 3 minutes (60×g) . After centrifugation, the upper yellow fluid liquid (i-PRF) will be collected as close as possible to the layer of red cells
Interventions
According to the amount of the injectable platelet rich fibrin that will be obtained after the centrifugation of blood, the amount of Vitamin C will be calculated to be; for each 1 ml of injectable platelet rich fibrin, 250 μg of Vitamin C will be mixed with the i-PRF and injected inside the canals using a plastic syringe with a 25-gauge needle that was placed 1mm short of the working length and will be withdrawn gradually while injecting till reaching the canal orifice
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Adults with an age range of 18-45 years old, with no sex predication.
- Patients diagnosed with pulp necrosis in mature maxillary or mandibular anterior teeth with negative response to both cold and electrical pulp testing.
- Associated with or without swelling /sinus tract.
- Has radiographic evidence of periapical radiolucency
You may not qualify if:
- Patients who are allergic to the drugs or pharmaceuticals used in the trial (mainly ciprofloxacin or metronidazole).
- Patients with presence of periodontal pockets, pathological mobility, ankyloses, root fracture.
- Patients with non-restorable teeth, teeth with pulp space needed for post cementation.
- Teeth with previous root canal treatment, teeth with developmental anomalies, and teeth with external or internal resorption.
