About this study

Official title: Effect of Different Root Canal Instruments on Removal of Endotoxins From Necrotic Root Canals (A Randomized Clinical Trial)

  • Grouping: The patients will be randomly assigned into two equal groups Group : OneShape Group: ProtaperNext
  • Endodontics procedure steps:
  1. Patient will be anesthetized by using infiltration local anesthesia or nerve block according to the tooth location in mandibular or maxillary arch respectively.
  2. All caries will be removed, then isolation using rubber dam, the crown and surrounding structures will be disinfected with 30% H2O2( hydrogen peroxide) for 30 seconds, followed by 2.5% NaOCl for the same period of time and then inactivated with 5% sodium thiosulphate. 2- For the access cavity preparation, a sterile/apyrogenic high-speed diamond bur will be used in conjunction with manual irrigation with sterile saline. Before entering the pulp chamber, the access cavity will be disinfected according to the protocol described above. 2- Root canal length will be determined, by preoperative radiograph then (S1) will be taken by introducing a sterile/apyrogenic paper point #15/ 20 (5paper points) into the full length of the canal and left there for 1 minute. Then, the sample will be placed in an apyrogenic glass and stored in -20°. Then canal length will be confirmed by apex locator. 3- Cleaning and shaping will be done using either One shape or Protaper next rotary instruments in crown down preparation technique with the use of in an endodontic motor according to the manufacturer instructions, the canals will be thoroughly irrigated using 3ml of 2.5% Sodium hypochlorite between every subsequent instrument. 4-After root canal preparation, NaOCl will be inactivated with 5 mL of sterile 5% sodium thiosulphate for 1 minute, which then will be removed with 5 mL of sterile/apyrogenic saline solution., which then will be removed with 5 mL of sterile/apyrogenic saline solution. second endotoxin sample (S2) will be taken from the root canals. (5 paper point size of the master cone). 5- After completion of instrumentation and irrigation, obturation will be done using size 30/ 0.4 taper gutta-percha cones and auxiliaries as needed using the modified single cone technique.

Determination of Endotoxin Concentration Human endotoxin (ET) ELISA Kit will be used to measure endotoxin concentrations in the root canals before and after chemomechanical procedures.

Materials and Methods:

  1. Trial Design:

The trial design of this study will be a prospective, parallel, Randomized clinical trial (RCT). The clinical trial involves research using human participants. In this trial, the participants will be randomly allocated to receive one of two interventions according to the protocol created by the investigator; one of these interventions will be the control. The investigator is to determine the safety and/or the efficacy of the interventions after being received by the participants by measuring the outcomes because the outcomes will be measured, RCTs are quantitative studies.

  • Grouping: The patients will be randomly assigned into two equal groups according to the type of rotary endodontic system used during root canal preparation: Group : OneShape Group : ProtaperNext
  • Endodontics procedure steps:
  1. Patient will be anesthetized by using infiltration local anesthesia or nerve block according to the tooth location in mandibular or maxillary arch respectively.
  2. All caries will be removed, then isolation using rubber dam, the crown and surrounding structures will be disinfected with 30% H2O2 ( hydrogen peroxide) for 30 seconds, followed by 2.5% NaOCl for the same period of time and then inactivated with 5% sodium thiosulphate. 2- For the access cavity preparation, a sterile/apyrogenic high-speed diamond bur will be used in conjunction with manual irrigation with sterile saline. Before entering the pulp chamber, the access cavity will be disinfected according to the protocol described above. 2- Root canal length will be determined, by preoperative radiograph then (S1) will be taken by introducing a sterile/apyrogenic paper point #15/ 20 (5paper points) into the full length of the canal and left there for 1 minute. Then, the sample will be placed in an apyrogenic glass and stored in -20°. Then canal length will be confirmed by apex locator. 3- Cleaning and shaping will be done using either One shape or Protaper next rotary instruments in crown down preparation technique with the use of in an endodontic motor according to the manufacturer instructions, the canals will be thoroughly irrigated using 3ml of 2.5% Sodium hypochlorite between every subsequent instrument. 4-After root canal preparation, NaOCl will be inactivated with 5 mL of sterile 5% sodium thiosulphate for 1 minute, which then will be removed with 5 mL of sterile/apyrogenic saline solution., which then will be removed with 5 mL of sterile/apyrogenic saline solution. second endotoxin sample (S2) will be taken from the root canals. (5 paper point size of the master cone). 5- After completion of instrumentation and irrigation, obturation will be done using size 30/ 0.4 taper gutta-percha cones and auxiliaries as needed using the modified single cone technique. 6- All procedures will be done in a single-visit, checked radiographically and recorded in the procedure chart.

Determination of Endotoxin Concentration Human endotoxin (ET) ELISA Kit will be used to measure endotoxin concentrations in the root canals before and after chemomechanical procedures.

As a parameter for calculation of the amount of endotoxins in the root canal samples, a standard curve will be plotted by using the endotoxin of known concentration supplied by the kit according to the manufacturer's instructions.

The test procedure will be performed according to the manufacturer's instructions. And the absorbance of endotoxins will be measured by using spectrophotometer at wavelength 450 nm.

  1. Outcomes:

Evaluation of the antibacterial effect of using One Shape and Protaper Next rotary endodontic NiTi instruments for root canal preparation using Human endotoxin (ET) ELISA Kit

  1. Randomization:

The randomization will be done in three steps:

  1. Sequence generation: The random sequence generation will be done for the patients' numbers (from 1 to 38) using Microsoft Excel software. Allocation concealment mechanism: The allocation concealment will be phone-based.
  2. Implementation:

The random sequence will be done by a colleague and the random sequence table will be kept with him. After eligibility assessment, the operator would call the colleague for eligibility checking and to know the group assignment for the patients.

  1. Blinding:

Participants, outcome assessor and data analyst will be blinded in this trial. The operator will be not blinded.
