Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Clinical success

    Clinical Success is a composite outcome and will be recorded as Clinically Successful or Clinically Unsuccessful based on the following evaluation criteria: Clinically Successful: Following assigned treatment in case of absence of all of the following: spontaneous pain, swelling, sinus tract, palpation pain, percussion pain. Clinically unsuccessful: Following assigned treatment in case of presence of any of the following: spontaneous pain, swelling, sinus tract, palpation pain, percussion pain.

    1, 3, 6, 9 and 12 months

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Radiographic success

    6 and 12 months

  • Overall success

    6 and 12 months

Study Arms (2)

Regeneration using Injectable platelet-rich fibrin

EXPERIMENTAL

A 10-mL sample of whole venous blood will be drawn from the patient's forearm (median cubital vein). It will be centrifuged immediately by a tabletop centrifuge at 700 rpm for 3 minutes at room temperature. Injectable platelet-rich fibrin (I-PRF) will be collected. After that, the I-PRF will be injected inside the canals using a plastic syringe needle that will be placed 1mm short of the working length and withdrawn gradually while injecting till reaching the orifices of the canals. After that, a Collagen membrane matrix will be placed above the canal orifice and will left for 5 minutes to partially harden, then a 3 mm thick layer of MTA will be placed directly over it. The cavity will be sealed with composite and covered with a stainless steel crown.

Procedure: Regeneration using Injectable platelet-rich fibrin

Root canal treatment

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

The root canal will be obturated with gutta-percha by the cold lateral condensation technique with epoxy resin-based root canal sealer, the cavity will be sealed with composite and covered with a stainless steel crown.

Procedure: Root canal treatment

Interventions

root canals of affected molars will be cleaned and shaped chemo-mechanically, after two weeks I-PRF will be applied.
