Summary

This study tested whether measuring brain waves before a root canal can help predict how much pain a person will feel afterward. One hundred adults with tooth pain had their brain activity recorded, then rated their pain after treatment. The goal was to see if a simple brain scan could identify people who need extra pain management.
