Filter by:Objective: This study was conducted to evaluate the efficacy of combination of biodentine with simvastatin as a pulpotomy agent for vital primary molars clinically and radiographically. Study design: 60 primary molars in 20 children aged 4-7 years old were randomly allocated to three groups, Biodentine, Simvastatin and combination of Biodentine and simvastatin. Clinical and radiographic examinations were conducted at 1, 3, 6, 9 and 12 months after treatment. Key words: Pulpotomy, Primary teeth, Biodentine, Simvastatin.
Comparing Pre-cooling with Ethyl Chloride versus Honey in Alleviating Intra-oral injection pain in Adult patients
Introduction: To achieve painless treatment in patients with a failed primary IANB, supplementary anaesthesia has been advised. The majority of the studies evaluating intraligamentary injections have been performed on asymptomatic teeth. Very limited research has been dedicated to the evaluation of different variables in intraligamentary injections in patients with symptomatic irreversible pulpitis Aim: To evaluate the anaesthetic efficacy of 2% lidocaine with 1:80 000 epinephrine vs. 2% lidocaine with 1:80 000 epinephrine plus tramadol hydrochloride (50 mg, 1:1 v/v ratio), given as intraligamentary injections after a failed inferior alveolar nerve block (IANB), in patients with symptomatic irreversible pulpitis. Objective: 1. To achieve painless treatment in patients with a failed primary IANB. during the endodontic management of symptomatic mandibular first/second molar. 2. To evaluate the heart rate during and after intraligamentary injections Methods: This prospective, randomized, double-blind clinical trial will be carried out by Conservative Dentistry, Faculty Of Dentistry, Jamia Millia Islamia. Sixty adult patients with symptomatic irreversible pulpits in a mandibular first or second molar will receive an initial IANB with 2% lidocaine with 1:80 000 epinephrine. Pain during the endodontic treatment will be assessed using a visual analogue scale(VAS). Patients experiencing pain on endodontic intervention shall be randomly allocated to one of the two treatment groups: one group shall receive 0.6 mL/ root of supplementary intraligamentary injection of 2% lidocaine with 1:80 000 epinephrine; while the second group shall receive 2% lidocaine with 1:80 000 epinephrine plus tramadol hydrochloride (50 mg, 1:1 v/v ratio). Endodontic treatment will be re-initiated. Success after primary injection or supplementary injection will be defined as no or mild pain (less than 55 mm on HP VAS) during access preparation and root canal instrumentation. Heart rate will be monitored using a finger pulse oximeter by a faculty member. Statistical analysis: The results will be tabulated in contingency tables. The anaesthetic success rates will be analyzed with the Pearson chi-square test at 5% significance levels. The heart rate changes will be analyzed using a t-test.
The purpose of this study is to see how preoperative oral diclofenac sodium, piroxicam, and tramadol affects inferior alveolar nerve block efficacy during root canal treatment of mandibular molars with symptomatic irreversible pulpitis. The proposed hypothesis is that the tested drug groups will improve the efficacy of inferior alveolar nerve block in comparison to the control group.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of low-level laser therapy (LLLT) and intracanal cryotherapy applications on postoperative pain in endodontic interventions of primary molar teeth with apical periodontitis. 75 patients were randomly assigned to the control, low-level laser and cryotherapy groups.Root canal treatments were performed in a single session. The pain intensity felt by the patients on the preoperative and postoperative 1st, 3rd, 5th and 7th days were recorded using the Wong Baker visual pain scale. Preoperative and postoperative 7th day percussion sensitivity was recorded using the VAS (visual analog scale) scale. The pain scores of the groups at different times after the procedure were compared. Statistical analysis of the data was performed at the 0.05 significance level.
Introduction: This study aimed to compare postoperative pain rates following sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) and KTP laser-assisted pulpotomy treatments in permanent teeth with deep caries, and symptomatic irreversible pulpitis. Methods: Ninety patients complaining of permanent teeth pain due to symptomatic irreversible pulpitis were randomly divided into 3 equal groups. Preoperative pain levels were recorded. After the initial bleeding control was achieved with saline, complete hemostasis was achieved by applying saline (control group), 2.5% NaOCl, or KTP laser according to randomly determined patient groups. Patients were asked to mark their pain level on the visual pain scale at the 6th, 24th, 48th, and 72nd hours, and 7th and 30th days depending on the severity of the pain. The permanent restoration was completed after 7 days. Results: According to the present study, the statistical difference between the groups in terms of preoperative pain and percussion pain levels was insignificant. There was no significant difference between the groups in terms of demographic data. The postoperative pain level of the KTP laser group was significantly lower at the 6th hour compared to the saline group. There was no significant difference between the groups in terms of postoperative pain level at other time intervals. The greatest pain scores occurred in all groups at 6th hour. Conclusions: KTP laser can be preferred primarily in reducing postoperative pain in pulpotomy treatments. KTP laser or NaOCl assisted pulpotomy can be an effective treatment for pain reduction in permanent teeth with symptomatic irreversible pulpitis.
This randomized, double-blind clinical trial aimed at the evaluation of the effect of adding dexamethasone to 2% lidocaine, given as inferior alveolar nerve block in the endodontic management of symptomatic irreversible pulpitis. One hundred and twenty four patients received one of the three IANB injections before the endodontic treatment: 2% lidocaine with 1:80 000 epinephrine; 2% lidocaine with 1:80 000 epinephrine mixed with 2mg dexamethasone; and plain 2% lidocaine mixed with 2mg dexamethasone. The anesthetia was considered successful if the patients experienced no pain or faint/weak/mild pain during root canal access preparation and instrumentation (HP VAS score <55 mm). The effect of intraligamentary injections on maximum heart rates was also recorded.
One of the most important aspects of endodontic practice is to abate pain during and post root canal treatment. An endodontist by all means should provide a painless endodontic treatment to their patients. This study is carried out to determine the effect of occlusal reduction on relief of pain and percussion in patients with irreversible pulpitis and symptomatic apical periodontitis treated in a single visit root canal treatment. Pain will be assessed preoperatively and then post operatively after completion of the root canal at 6 hours, 12 hours, 24 hours, 48 hours and 72 hours following obturation of root canal.
Local anesthesia in the oral cavity is a pain full experience for the patient. All means should be made to reduce the pain and anxiety of the patient for needle stick procedures. My study aims in elevating the pain experienced by the patient during this procedure by using either cold application with ethyl chloride or 5% lidocaine gel.
The aim of this randomized clinical trial is to compare the antibacterial effects of sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) and Polyhexamethylene biguanide during root canal treatment .
