Trial design

Design model

Parallel

Treatments tested in this trial

  • Bioceramic Intracanal Medicament

    Drug

    Bioceramic material will be used as an intracanal medicament during root canal treatment in Permanent Mandibular molars with Symptomatic Apical Periodontitis

Treatment groups

28 Participants
are divided into 2 treatment groups
Group A: Calcium Hydroxide GroupExperimental treatment 1 intervention
Group B: Bioceramic GroupExperimental treatment 1 intervention

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Assessment of postoperative pain levels

Postoperative pain intensity will be assessed using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS), ranging from 0 to 10, where 0 indicates no pain and 10 indicates the worst imaginable pain. Pain scores will be recorded at 6 hours, 24 hours, 48 hours, 72 hours, and 7 days after treatment to compare postoperative pain levels between the two medicament groups and evaluate the correlation between Substance P reduction and pain perception.

Time frame
one week

Secondary outcomes

1

neurogenic biomarker Substance P Level

To compare the effectiveness of bio ceramic intracanal medicament (Bio-C Temp) and calcium hydroxide in reducing the neurogenic biomarker Substance P in periapical samples of molars diagnosed with symptomatic apical periodontitis

Time frame
one week after the pulp Extirpation
