Brief Summary
The study involves two groups in which root canal obturation will be performed using different obturation techniques. Group one consists of participants with the single cone cold lateral condensation method, while group two consists of participants with the continuous wave compaction technique. Postoperative pain will be assessed and compared between the two groups.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
comparison of post operative pain
post operative pain using VISUAL ANALOGUE SCALE (VAS) , two methods of obturation to assess pain after root canal using cold lateral versus heated gutta percha Pre operative pain will be measured on each patient according to visual analogue scale as baseline before intiating the procedure .
24 hours , 48 hours and 1week
Study Arms (2)
Group one receiving cold lateral condensation obturation
NO INTERVENTIONconventional method of obturation is used
Group 2 receiving obturation through continous wave compaction
EXPERIMENTALheated gutta percha using continous wave compaction
Interventions
post operative pain measurement using continous wave compaction
