Summary

This study looked at different ways to clean a tooth during a root canal to see which one causes the least pain afterward. 80 healthy adults with a dead tooth in the lower jaw received one of several disinfection methods. Their pain was checked at 6, 24, 48, and 72 hours, and again on day 7. The goal was to find the gentlest cleaning method for a more comfortable recovery.
