Summary

This study will compare two types of root canal sealers, NeoSealer Flo and CeraSeal, in 30 adults needing root canal treatment for painful tooth inflammation. The goal is to see which sealer causes less pain after the procedure and less leakage of material beyond the tooth tip. Participants will rate their pain using a simple scale, and X-rays will check for sealer extrusion.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
bioceramic root canal sealers (NeoSealer Flo and CeraSeal)
What this could lead to
If one sealer causes less pain or extrusion, dentists may adopt it to improve patient comfort after root canals.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial with only 30 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. Pain is subjective and hard to measure precisely.
