Amla vs standard disinfectant for root canal treatment
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a natural substance called amla (Indian gooseberry) works as well as a standard disinfectant for cleaning inside a tooth during root canal treatment. It may help people with an infected tooth nerve (pulp) who need a root canal.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial compares two different materials used to treat the inner part of a decayed molar tooth when the nerve is inflamed but still alive. The study tests whether a natural plant-based material works as well as the standard treatment (MTA) to save your tooth.
This trial tests whether a natural gum resin (Boswellia) placed inside the tooth during root canal treatment can fight infection better than standard medications. It may be a good option for people with a single-rooted tooth infection who are otherwise healthy.
This study compares two medicines placed inside a tooth to relieve pain and fight infection after root canal treatment. If you have a painful, infected lower first molar, this trial may help determine which medicine works better.
This trial compares two different ways to clean a molar tooth during a root canal when the nerve is dead. The goal is to find which method is better at removing infection without causing discomfort.
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 tests whether a special cleaning solution (Triton Irrigation Protocol) reduces pain after root canal treatment in a dead lower molar. It may help people with a dead nerve tooth who want less discomfort after the procedure.
