Pain after root canal treatment in lower molars
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This study compares how much pain people feel after a single root canal treatment on a lower back molar. It may help find a way to reduce discomfort after the procedure.

This study compares two different instrument techniques used during root canal treatment to see which one leads to less pain afterward. It aims to help people with a type of tooth infection called irreversible pulpitis find a more comfortable recovery.
This study compares pain levels after two different root canal treatments for baby back teeth that have irreversible pulpitis (deep infection). It aims to find which method causes less discomfort afterward.
This study tests whether using different strengths of a disinfectant rinse inside the tooth, sometimes combined with cold therapy, can reduce pain after a type of root canal treatment for lower molars. It aims to find the most comfortable and effective approach for managing post-procedure pain.
This study tests a procedure that removes only the top part of the tooth's nerve (pulpotomy) on painful lower molars in adults. The goal is to save the tooth using a special material (calcium silicate sealer) instead of a full root canal.
This trial compares two different ways of cleaning and shaping the inside of a tooth (root canal) to see which one causes less pain afterward. It is for people with a specific type of tooth infection in a lower back molar.
This trial tests whether a special cooling treatment (cryotherapy) can reduce pain right after a root canal for a badly infected lower premolar. If you are healthy and not on painkillers, this may help you feel better faster.
