Summary

This study tested two different rinses used at the end of a root canal to see which one leads to less pain afterward. 142 adults with an infected single-root tooth were treated in one visit. They received either octenidine or chlorhexidine as the final rinse. Pain was tracked for 48 hours using a simple 0-10 scale.
