Pain Relief After Root Canal Treatment With Cold Therapy
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study tests whether cooling the area around a tooth during root canal treatment reduces pain afterward. Root canals treat infections deep inside teeth, and this trial compares standard treatment to treatment with added cooling to see which causes less pain.

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.
This study tests two ways of using cold therapy inside a tooth during a root canal to reduce pain and improve how well numbing medicine works. If you have a painful lower back tooth that needs a root canal, this trial may offer relief.
This study compares two methods to reduce pain after a root canal: applying cold (cryotherapy) and using a steroid medicine called dexamethasone. It aims to find which approach works better for managing post-procedure discomfort.
This study tests two different ways of cleaning and treating a tooth that had a root canal treatment before. Researchers want to see which method causes less pain after the procedure.
