NCT05653947

Brief Summary

This clinical study aimed to Compare the levels of Interleukin 8 before and after root canal treatment in patients with apical periodontitis

  • Diagnosis
  • Local anesthesia
  • Isolation and disinfection of the tooth
  • Two-staged access cavity preparation
  • Patency of the root canals
  • First sample collection using paper points
  • Working length determination
  • Chemico-mechanical preparation
  • After 1 week, isolation, Second sample collection then obturation of the root canals and restoration of the tooth.
  • Samples will be stored in (-80 C) freezer till collection of all samples then, quantification will be done using ELISA.

Sexall
Healthy VolunteersYes
Age GroupsAdult (18-64)

You may qualify if:

  • Medically free patients
  • Single canaled teeth diagnosed clinically with symptomatic apical periodontitis.
  • Radiographic widening in the periodontal membrane space.
  • Presence of pain on percussion.
  • Patients' acceptance to participate in the trial.

You may not qualify if:

  • Medically compromised patients.
  • Pregnant women: Avoid radiation exposure, anesthesia, and medication.
  • If analgesics or antibiotics have been administrated by the patient during the past 24 hours preoperatively.
  • Teeth that shows association with acute periapical abscess or swelling: Need special treatment steps which could involve additional visits with incision and drainage.
  • Presence of periodontal disease
  • Non restorability
  • Immature teeth
  • Radiographic evidence of external or internal root resorption vertical root fracture, perforation, calcification.
