About this study
Official title: Comparison of the Clinical Effectiveness of Calcium Silicate-based Sealer and Epoxy Resin-based Sealer in Single-visit Root Canal Treatment
Background: Sealers have been concerned with obturation. However, studies for assessing the effectiveness of endodontic treatment of sealer based on Calcium Silicate have been not much.
Objective: This study aimed to assess the effectiveness of endodontic treatment of sealer based on Calcium Silicate Methods: A prospective, single-blind, clinical trial was conducted from June 2020 to December 2020 with 42 irreversible pulpitis teeth by one clinician. The postoperative pain was assessed after root canal treatment using sealer based on Calcium Silicate and sealer based on Epoxy resin after 6 hours, 12 hours, 24 hours, 48 hours, 72 hours and 7 days and inconvenient symptoms were assessed after 7 days, 3 months and 6 months. t-test, Mann-Whitney and Wilcoxon analysis were applied.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Epoxy resin-based sealers (ERS)Drug
Also called Epoxy resin-based cement
All teeth received one-visit endodontic treatment according to the treatment protocol of the Vietnamese Ministry of Health with the support of three-dimensional imaging equipment and an endodontic machine. After root canal preparation, obturation was performed using Epoxy resin-based sealers.
Calcium silicate-based sealers (CSS)Drug
Also called Calcium silicate-based cement
All teeth received one-visit endodontic treatment according to the treatment protocol of the Vietnamese Ministry of Health with the support of three-dimensional imaging equipment and an endodontic machine. After root canal preparation, obturation was performed using Calcium silicate-based sealers.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Change in pain intensity over time
The investigator instructed patients on how to use the 170-mm Heft-Parker self-assessment scale to evaluate their pain intensity. Swelling, fistula, and sensitivity under biting pressure were classified as binary variables.
Measured: after 6 hours, 12 hours, 24 hours, 48 hours, 72 hours and 7 days after treatment
Change in pain relief over time
The investigator instructed patients on how to use the 170-mm Heft-Parker self-assessment scale to evaluate their pain intensity. Swelling, fistula, and sensitivity under biting pressure were classified as binary variables.
Measured: after 6 hours, 12 hours, 24 hours, 48 hours, 72 hours and 7 days after treatment
Change in treatment outcome evaluation over time
Based on Strindberg's criteria of clinical symptoms, the treatment outcome evaluation was then expressed as success, failure, or uncertain depending on the presence of symptoms
Measured: 1 week, 3 months and 6 months after treatment

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 3 study testing Epoxy resin-based sealers (ERS) and Calcium silicate-based sealers (CSS) in people with Pulpitis - Irreversible and Pain, Postoperative, run by University of Medicine and Pharmacy at Ho Chi Minh City at 1 site in Vietnam.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 9 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Jun 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in Vietnam. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Change in pain intensity over time (time frame: after 6 hours, 12 hours, 24 hours, 48 hours, 72 hours and 7 days after treatment). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT05904184, which also lists 2 linked publications.
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 15 Jun 2023.
