First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study compares pain after root canal therapy done in one visit versus two visits for people with diabetes. 200 patients aged 12-60 with a single-rooted tooth needing root canal will be randomly assigned to either a single session or two sessions. The main goal is to see which approach leads to less moderate-to-severe pain 24 hours after the procedure.
