Clinical Trial Description

The goal of this clinical trial is to assess post-operative pain following root canal preparation using various single-file systems.Postoperative pain assessment was done by an independent evaluator with no knowledge of the group under investigation. The visual Analogue Scale (VAS) was employed. Patients could put a mark anywhere on the VAS sheet with values ranging from 0 to 100 mm [10].

• Score 0: No pain (between 0 and 4 mm) the tooth after treatment felt normal, and no discomfort was reported by the patients.

• Score 1: Recognizable, mild pain (between 5 and 44 mm), not requiring analgesics.

• Score 2: Moderate pain (between 45 and 74 mm) that is uncomfortable but bearable (when analgesics were taken, the pain was successfully reduced).

• Score 3: Severe pain (between 75 and 100 mm) painful to endure (pain was not relieved by taking analgesics).

The patients in this study were not aware of the preparation system used during treatment. Following treatment, three readings were taken at 24, 72, and 7 days. Each patient carried a VAS form, and reminder calls were made to record pain levels and return the form filled out completely ;
