NCT07071675

Brief Summary

The goal of this randomized clinical trial is to evaluate the Postoperative Pain and Flare-Up incidence following the use of Bio-Ceramic Based Intra-Canal Medication in Diabetic type II Patients compared to the Calcium Hydroxide based Intra-canal medicament. The main questions it aims to answer are:

  • visual analog scale (VAS), A scale from (0 to 10) where "0" means no pain and "10" means a severe pain that has never faced before.
  • Patients will be contacted by phone at 6, 12, 24, 48, 72 hours and 7 days after the first visit to collect the postoperative pain data. Flare-up is assessed: \- by asking the patient to notify the investigator if any sudden severe pain or swelling takes place.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • postoperative pain intensity

    Postoperative pain is to be assessed using visual analog scale (VAS), A scale from (0 to 10) where "0" means no pain and "10" means a severe pain that has never faced before. Patients will be contacted by phone at 6, 12, 24, 48, 72 hours and 7 days after the first visit to collect the postoperative pain data.

    6, 12, 24, 48, 72 hours and 7 days after the first visit to collect the postoperative pain data.

  • Flare-Up Incidence

    Flare-up is assessed through asking the patient to notify the investigator if any sudden severe pain or swelling takes place. This could require an unscheduled emergency visit or prescription of additional medication.

    Within 7 days post-treatment

Masking Details
Participants will be blinded to the type of intracanal medicament used during their root canal treatment. The medicaments will be applied in a manner that prevents participants from identifying which treatment they received.

Intervention Model
PARALLEL
Model Details: Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two parallel groups. Each group will receive a different intracanal medicament following root canal treatment. Postoperative pain and flare-up incidence will be assessed and compared between the two groups.
