Summary

This study looked at 43 adults with painful tooth nerve inflammation who needed emergency root canal treatment. After cleaning the tooth, they received either calcium hydroxide or Tobradex (an antibiotic-steroid mix) placed inside the tooth. The goal was to see which one reduced pain better in the first 48 hours after treatment. Patients rated their pain before treatment and at 24 and 48 hours afterward.
