Summary

This trial tests whether applying cryotherapy (cold therapy) along with different concentrations of sodium hypochlorite irrigation during vital pulp therapy can reduce post-operative pain in permanent mandibular molars. Adults aged 15-40 with symptomatic irreversible pulpitis will undergo the procedure, and their pain levels will be measured using a standard pain scale. The goal is to see if adding cold therapy to the irrigation improves pain control compared to standard irrigation alone.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Sodium hypochlorite irrigation with and without cryotherapy during vital pulp therapy
What this could lead to
If effective, this approach could offer a simple, low-cost way to reduce pain after root canal procedures, improving patient comfort and recovery.
What could go wrong
This is a very small early-stage trial, so results may not apply broadly. Pain relief may not differ significantly, and the procedure carries standard risks like infection or tissue irritation.
