NCT ID NCT07388368
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jul 30, 2026 · Updated 3 times
Summary
This study compares two types of dental sealers used after root canal treatment to see which causes less pain. About 118 adults with painful tooth inflammation will receive either a tricalcium silicate sealer or a resin-based sealer. Pain levels will be measured at 24 hours, 72 hours, and 7 days after treatment.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- tricalcium silicate sealer (CeraSeal) and resin-based sealer (Endoplus)
- What this could lead to
- If one sealer works better, it could mean less pain after root canal treatment for people with pulpitis.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-stage trial with only 118 people, so results may not apply to everyone. Pain is subjective and hard to measure precisely.
