Summary

This study compares two common root canal techniques (step-back vs step-down) to find which one causes less pain after treatment. About 110 adults with pulp necrosis (dead tooth nerve) will be randomly assigned to one method. Pain levels will be tracked for a week using a simple 0-10 scale. The goal is to improve patient comfort after root canal therapy.
