About this study

Official title: Effect Of Using XP Endo Finisher Versus Ultrasonic Activated Irrigation On Post-operative Pain In Single Visit Endodontic Treatment of Teeth With Symptomatic Irreversible Pulpitis: A Randomized Controlled Trial

Recruited patients with symptomatic irreversible pulpitis are assigned to interventional (XP Endo Finisher file) and control group(ultrasonic activated irrigation) to undergo single visit endodontic treatment and record postoperative pain afterwards.

Read the detailed description

The investigator will recruit patients from the clinic of endodontics in faculty of oral and dental medicine, Cairo university.

The patients who are found eligible to the criteria, will be randomly assigned to either the control group (ultrasonic activated irrigation )or to the intervention group( XP Endo-Finisher file). Endodontic treatment will be done in single visit.

After the visit, patients will be asked to record post operative pain by NRS (Numerical Rate Scale)in a given sheet.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. post-operative pain

    measured by NRS (Numerical rate scale)

    Measured: up to 1 week after the visit

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Number of taken analgesic tablets

    counted by the patient and recorded in a given chart

    Measured: within a week after the visit
