Comparing two root canal medications for pain and healing
Treatments studied
Part of Mouth & dental, Pain clinical trials.
This study compares two types of medication placed inside a tooth after root canal treatment to see which one reduces pain and swelling better. It may help people with a dead nerve in a back tooth who have no current pain but have an infection around the root.
