New study tests faster, less painful root canals for kids

NCT ID NCT07702877

First seen Jul 14, 2026 · Last updated Jul 15, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This trial compares two types of rotary files (Kedo-Nano Plus and Kedo-S Square) with traditional hand files for root canals in children's baby molars. About 60 healthy kids aged 5-8 with infected molars will receive a pulpectomy using one of the three tools. Researchers will check how well the filling material fills the root and measure pain levels up to 48 hours after treatment.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Pulpectomy (root canal treatment) using Kedo-Nano Plus rotary files, Kedo-S Square rotary files, or manual K-files
What this could lead to
If successful, this could identify a faster, less painful root canal method for children, improving their dental experience and treatment outcomes.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial with only 60 children, so results may not apply to all kids or other teeth. Pain and filling quality can vary regardless of the tool used.
