Comparing bleach strengths for root canal retreatment pain
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This trial tests if different concentrations of sodium hypochlorite (a disinfectant used in root canals) affect pain and certain natural chemicals in the tooth during root canal retreatment. It may help find the best option to reduce discomfort.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study compares two root canal cleaning solutions (calcium hypochlorite vs. sodium hypochlorite) to see which one causes less pain and reduces bacteria better in lower premolars with dead nerves. If you have a tooth that needs a root canal and is not infected severely, you may qualify.
This study compares two different strengths of a cleaning solution used during root canal treatment to see which one causes less pain afterward. Root canal treatment cleans out infected or damaged tissue inside a tooth; this trial tests whether the cleaning solution's strength affects your pain recovery.
This study compares two different methods of delivering a cleaning solution during root canal treatment to see which one causes less pain and discomfort after the procedure. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of the two methods.
This trial compares different ways of heating a special rinsing solution (sodium hypochlorite) inside a tooth during root canal treatment. The goal is to see which method works better at killing germs and reducing pain after the procedure. This study is for people who need a root canal on a single-rooted tooth that is already dead (no nerve pain).
This study compares two root canal cleaning solutions (chlorhexidine and sodium hypochlorite) to see which one causes less pain after treatment. If you need a root canal and meet the health criteria, you may be able to help choose the gentler option.
This trial compares two ways of cleaning infected root canals during a root canal procedure. The goal is to see which method better removes bacteria and improves healing.
