First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tests whether a special irrigation solution called nanochitosan can help regenerate damaged tissue in infected teeth. Sixty adults with dead teeth and chronic infection will receive one of three irrigation methods during a single dental visit. Researchers will check for healing using sensitivity tests, X-rays, and pain reports over 12 months.
