First seen Nov 20, 2025 · Last updated May 01, 2026 · Updated 18 times

Summary

This study looks at whether a specific step during a root canal—gently moving a small file past the tooth's tip—can lower pain afterward. It will involve 48 adults with a dead nerve and infection in a back molar. Participants will be split into two groups, one receiving the extra step and one not, and will rate their pain over three days. The goal is to find a simple way to make root canals less uncomfortable.
