Brief Summary
The ultimate biological aim of endodontic therapy is to either prevent or heal apical periodontitis. Root canal treatment can fail for various reasons, such as persistent infection, missing canals, ledges, canal transportation, instrument separation, and perforation. Post-treatment apical periodontitis is an inflammatory response in the tissues surrounding the root tip, triggered by either lingering bacteria from the initial procedure or a new, secondary infection within the canal system. Statistically, this condition affects roughly 5% to 20% of cases where apical periodontitis was present before the initial treatment.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Post Operative Pain
Evaluation of the cases from the pain after the procedures by using point numeric rating scale by another operator at 24, 48 and 72-hours.
from 24 hours to 72 hours after the procedures
Study Arms (2)
Non- surgical retreatment Novel Nanoparticle (NSRN)
ACTIVE COMPARATORAbout 14 cases will be irrigated with 5 ml of Novel Nanoparticle -Augmented irrigation placed in the root canal and activated passively with woodpecker ultrasonic (Guilin Woodpecker Medical Instrument Co., Ltd., China) for 3 cycle 20 seconds.
Non -surgical root canal retreatment (NSRC)
ACTIVE COMPARATORAbout 14 cases will be irrigated with 5 ml of (2.5%) NaOCl placed in the root canal and activated passively with woodpecker ultrasonic scaler (Guilin Woodpecker Medical Instrument Co., Ltd., China) for 3 cycle 20 seconds.
