Laser vs. nano-chitosan gel for whitening dead teeth
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study tests two methods to whiten teeth that have had root canal treatment. It compares using a diode laser with a special gel to see which works better for lightening discolored front teeth.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a front tooth that is discolored because the nerve died or had root canal treatment.
- The root canal was done at least 2 years ago.
- The discolored tooth must be one of your upper front teeth (central or lateral incisor).
- You cannot have any cavities or large fillings in those front teeth.
- You must not have active gum disease getting worse.

This study compares different ways of activating a teeth-whitening gel to see which works best, feels best, and causes the least tooth pain. If you want whiter teeth and are in good oral health, this may be for you.
This trial tests a regenerative endodontic procedure—a newer approach to treat mature teeth with dead nerve tissue and chronic inflammation at the root tip. The goal is to help your tooth heal and potentially restore its vitality without a traditional root canal.
This study tests a new, nano-sized antimicrobial gel to fight stubborn infections during repeat root canal treatment. It's for people with a premolar that still hurts or shows signs of infection after a previous root canal.
This trial tests if using a special laser (810 nm diode) to disinfect the tooth after a second root canal treatment can reduce pain and inflammation. It aims to help patients whose previous root canal failed and who have a small infection around the tooth root.
