Brief Summary
Methodology Patient with diabetes 2 with informed consent -convenience sampling over a one year period.The tooth isolated with a rubber dam and the correct disinfection procedures will be used. researcher will do the Access preparation Working length -electronic apex locator (Dentsply Propex II) as well as a radiographic approach. After the canals will be obturated using ZOE sealer and gutta percha and post endodontic restoration is done using composite restoration. Patient is kept on follow up for 7days, 15 days, 30 days ,45 days and 60 days Clinical outcome is measure using periapical radiograph (RVG) Pain is measured using visual analog scale to mark the pain intensity. Data will be analysed statistically To enlarge the root canals (ISO size 20 file) A sterile paper point inside the root canal for one minute until the apex of the root canal is reached Using T.E Buffer, samples will be delivered to the School Of Basic Life Sciences, Sharda University. The samples will be subjected to traditional PCR analysis for the detection of Peptostreptococcus spp. in the root canal. Grouping Following instrumentation, 5% NaOCl and 17% EDTA irrigation will be done. Control group (n=15) The final irrigant will be saline Group 1 (n=15) Irrigation using 5% apple cider vinegar done The final irrigant will be saline Group 2 (n=15) Diode laser is used for disinfection in the presence of saline Group 3 (n=15) Gymnema Sylvestre Mother Tincture Q 1000 CH solution is used for disinfection in the presence of saline Group 4 (n=15) Diode laser is used for disinfection in the presence of 5% apple cider vinegar. The final irrigant will be saline Group 5 (n=15) Diode laser is used for disinfection in the presence of Gymnema Sylvestre Mother Tincture Q 1000 CH solution. The final irrigant will be saline After cleaning and shaping, samples will be collected and sent through T.E. Buffer to the School Of Basic Life Sciences, Sharda University. The samples will be subjected to traditional PCR analysis for the detection of Peptostreptococcus spp. in the root canal.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Visual Analog Scale (VAS)
A Visual Analog Scale is a validated, subjective, 1-dimensional tool used to measure intensity, most commonly pain. It consists of a 10-cm (100-mm) horizontal or vertical line, with endpoints anchored by extremes, such as "no pain" and "worst imaginable pain," with patients marking their level
6 months
Detection of peptostreptococcus species after the use of intervention
Absence of peptostreptococcus species on PCR signifies disinfection of canal presence of peptostreptococcus species on PCR signifies irrigating agent is not effective
one year
