Summary

The objective of this research was to identify which of the root canal sealers, AH Plus or WellRootST, yielded more effective outcomes regarding postoperative pain when applied to teeth diagnosed with apical periodontitis.

Detailed description

A prospective cohort study was conducted at a single center, involving 120 patients diagnosed with chronic apical periodontitis (AP) admitted for endodontic treatment. Patients were categorized into two groups based on the type of root canal sealer used. Sixty patients treated with AH Plus sealer constituted Group 1, while sixty patients treated with WellRootST sealer comprised Group 2. Data collected for all participants included age, gender, findings from oral and dental examinations, tooth type, tooth number, duration of root canal treatment, and Visual Analog Scale (VAS) results recorded preoperatively, as well as at 24 hours, 48 hours, 72 hours, 1 week, and 1 month postoperatively.
