New laser test could improve accuracy of tooth vitality checks
NCT ID NCT02636504
Summary
This study aims to find the most accurate way to test if the living tissue inside a tooth is healthy before starting a root canal. Researchers will compare a new laser-based blood flow test against two standard methods that rely on a patient feeling pain from cold or electricity. The goal is to help dentists make better treatment decisions by more reliably knowing if a tooth can be saved.
