Summary

This study tests if garlic gel can replace the usual medicine placed inside teeth during root canals. About 96 people with infected permanent teeth will get either garlic gel or calcium hydroxide. Researchers will check pain, swelling, and X-ray healing to see if garlic works as well. If successful, garlic could offer a cheaper, natural option for dental care.
