Comparing two root canal cleaning methods for reducing post-procedure discomfort
Part of Pain clinical trials.
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 two different ways of cleaning and shaping the inside of a tooth (root canal) to see which one causes less pain afterward. It is for people with a specific type of tooth infection in a lower back molar.
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 compares two types of root canal rinses—one standard and one using cold plasma—to see which causes less pain after the procedure and affects a healing marker. It may help reduce discomfort after root canal treatment.
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 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 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.
