Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (16)

  • Absence of pathological mobility measured by (Miller's grades)

    Miller's Classification * Grade I: first distinguishable sign of movement * Grade II: movement of tooth which allows crown to deviate 1mm of its normal position * Grade III shows noticeable and increased movement of tooth more than 1mm in any direction or the tooth can be depressed into the socket. A reduction in grade of mobility from preoperative baseline will be considered as success while increased mobility will be recorded as failure

Study Arms (2)

(Group I Experimental Group):Simvastatin mixed with modified triple antibiotic (3Mixtatin)

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients will then be allocated into either one of the groups alternatively after access cavity preparation depending on the mix to be used as follows: for this group: * 2mg of pure Simvastatin powder will be added to the 1:1:1 3Mix powder and will be stored together in an air tight porcelain container to avoid the exposure to moisture and light. * Upon clinical application the 3Mixtatin powder will be mixed with normal saline to form a paste and is then applied in the same manner as the Modified 3Mix-MP paste.

Drug: 3Mixtatin paste: Simvastatin mixed with modified triple antibiotic

Group II Control group Modified triple antibiotic mix in propylene glycol (3Mix)

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

* Removal of enteric coating/capsule of the three antibiotic tablets using a surgical blade. * 500 mg Metronidazole tab * 500 mg Ciprofloxacin tab * 200 mg Cefixime caps * Pulverization of each of the drug, will be done using a pestle \& mortar, stored in an air tight porcelain container to avoid the exposure to moisture \& light. * Pulverized powders will be stored at a temperature of 16°C.Powder should be allowed to be cooled to the room temperature before initiating the preparation of 3Mix-MP paste. * Powders will be mixed in the proportion of: 1:1:1 by volume (Hoshino et al., 1988). * Vehicle that will be used is Systane eye drops (Kharadly et al., 2022) it contains the two main components propylene Glycol (Macrogol) \& polyethylene glycol. * The prepared antibiotic powder is mixed with the prepared vehicle in the ratio of 7:1 by volume. The two steps above are done after access cavity preparation to obtain a fresh mix.

Drug: 3Mix: Modified triple antibiotic mix in propylene glycol

Interventions

* Drying the mucosa with gauze,topical anesthesia will be applied. * Administration of local anesthesia with vasoconstrictor. * Rubber dam isolation. * Caries removal \& access cavity using a round bur mounted on a high-speed contra with coolant. * Removal of necrotic pulp tissue in coronal portion of the tooth using sharp excavator. * Radicular section will be kept untouched,no instrumentation. * Using disposable syringe Irrigation of the pulp chamber with 2.5% NaOCl. * In case of hemorrhage moist cotton immersed in 1% NaOCL will be placed to achieve hemostasis. * Drying the access cavity with sterile cotton pellets. * Freshly mixed 3Mix-MP or 3Mixtatin paste (according to group of intervention) will be transferred to the floor of the pulp chamber using an amalgam carrier \& condensed over orifices using a moist cotton pellet. * Cavity sealing with RMGI capsules. * Same visit placement with preformed Stainless-steel crown(3M® ESPE)cemented with glass ionomer cement.

Masking Details
This research will be a double-blinded study, where the patient (participant) and the outcome assessor will be blinded to the treatment group (to avoid detection, reporting and assessment bias). When a patient agrees to participate in the trial, an envelope will be drawn by one of the residents present at the clinic and name, telephone number and patient's I.D. will be written on it. Those selected envelops will be opened at treatment visit after performing access cavity to choose which material should be used. Randomization and allocation concealment will be performed by the co-supervisor to avoid selection bias. The participant will not be aware of which treatment modality he will be receiving. Principal investigator will not be blinded due to differences in preparation of the mix.
