Summary

root canal irrigation protocol

Detailed description

To compare mean post-operative pain intensity at different time intervals (24h and 48h) using visual analogue scale (VAS) in maxillary incisors with symptomatic irreversible pulpitis using two different irrigation activation methods (passive ultrasonic activation and sonic activation using EndoActivator).

Conditions

• Irriversible Pulpitis
• Irrigation
• Activation, Patient

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
PROCEDURE	passive ultrasonic activation	passive ultrasonic irrigant activation will be performed by using a stainless steel ultrasonic Irrisafe file of size 20 (IRRI S 21/25; VDW, Germany) mounted on ultrasonic unit (Woodpecker Ultrasonic Scaler UDS-J). The file will be kept 2 mm short of working length loosely without binding to the canal. 2.5% NaOCl will be activated for 30 seconds by using a power setting of five
PROCEDURE	sonic activation	root canals will be filled with 2.5% sodium hypochlorite and medium size tip (red, 25/04) of EndoAcivator (YAHOPE A3, China) will be used keeping it 2 mm short of working length. The activation of irrigant will be done in 2-3 mm vertical strokes for 30 seconds in between each instrumentation
