Root Canal Healing and Protein Markers Study
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study examines how certain proteins in your body help teeth heal after root canal treatment. Researchers will monitor your tooth's recovery to understand what supports successful healing.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a single-rooted tooth (most front teeth or some back teeth) that needs root canal treatment for the first time
- Your tooth shows signs of infection or damage on X-ray (PAI score 3 or higher)
- Your tooth's root is fully developed (not still growing)
- Your gum pockets around the tooth are less than 5 mm deep (measured by your dentist)
- You have not taken antibiotics in the past 4 weeks
- You have not taken pain relievers in the past 48 hours before treatment

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study is looking at how different types of root canal filling materials (sealers) affect oxidative stress markers in the body. It is for people with a single tooth that has a chronic infection at the root tip and needs a root canal.
This trial compares two materials (iRoot SP and nRoot SP) used to fill root canals after infection. It aims to see which works better for healing apical periodontitis, an infection around the tooth root.
This study looks at certain substances (biomarkers) in the mouth for people with a long-term infection at the root tip of a tooth (apical periodontitis). It aims to better understand markers that might help with diagnosis or treatment follow-up.
This study looks at which factors can change how well root canal (endodontic) treatment works. It may help improve future care by understanding what leads to better healing.
This study tests whether using a special platelet-rich concentrate (i-PRF) during a root canal retreatment can help heal infection at the tip of the root better than standard retreatment alone. It is for adults with a previously treated upper front tooth that now shows signs of infection on X-ray.
This study compares how well initial root canal treatments and repeat root canal retreatments work. It aims to see which approach leads to better healing of tooth infections or inflammation at the root tip.
