Summary

This study compares pain levels after root canal treatment using two different sealing materials: a resin-based sealer and a bioceramic sealer. 180 adults with a single-rooted tooth needing a root canal will be randomly assigned to one of the two sealers. Pain will be measured 24 and 48 hours after treatment using a simple 0-10 scale. The goal is to see if one material causes less discomfort.

What this could mean

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

Active substance: root canal sealer (resin-based or bioceramic)
What this could lead to: If one sealer causes less pain, dentists may switch to it, making root canals more comfortable for patients.
What could go wrong: This is a small, single-center trial measuring short-term pain only. Results may not apply to all teeth or patients, and neither sealer may prove clearly better.
