New root canal filling may reduce Post-Procedure pain and swelling
NCT ID NCT07600099
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether a new type of root canal filling material (bioceramic nano-coated gutta-percha with a bioceramic sealer) causes less pain and swelling after treatment compared to the standard material (gutta-percha with a resin sealer). About 30 adults aged 20-55 with a dead tooth nerve will receive one of the two fillings. Pain and swelling will be measured 24 and 48 hours after the procedure. The goal is to see if the newer material leads to a more comfortable recovery.
