Brief Summary
As a result of tooth decay, lesions caused by infection occur at the root tip. These teeth can heal with root canal treatment. In this study, additional applications will be made to increase the success of root canal treatment. The materials we will use are harmless. At the end of the procedure, your teeth will be monitored regularly and their healing status will be checked.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
healing of periapical lesions by radiography
The area of lesions in periapical radiographs, captured using the parallel technique, was calculated in mm² utilizing Image J 1.28 software (Figure 7) (National Institute of Health, USA).
long-term follow-up evaluation in 12 months
post-op pain
Participants were scheduled for follow-up appointments at 6, 12, and 24 hours, as well as at 1 week, during which they were asked to report any pain experienced. Pain levels were assessed using the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), ranging from 0 (no pain) to 10 (most severe pain), and recorded accordingly.
Participants were scheduled for follow-up appointments at 6, 12, and 24 hours, as well as at 1 week,
