Assessing Post Endodontic Pain with two different file system using dynamic irrigation technique: A randomised clinical trial

Introduction: Immediate condition just after root canal therapy takes a first impressionof treatment as well as clinician’s ability. In this pretext, evaluation of reduction of PEPusing two different file system with Endoactivator is done.Aim: Evaluation of post endodontic pain after using Endoactivator with ProTaper Goldand ProTaper Next file system in single visit root canal treatment.Material method: A total of 100 patients were assigned who required endodontictreatment. They were divided into two groups: Group 1 (PTG-EA) and Group 2 (PTNEA). Single visit root canal was performed under local anesthesia. Endoactivator wasused for final irrigation protocol in all groups. The intensity of post endodontic pain(PEP) was evaluated by Visual Analogue Scale VAS score after 6,12,24 and 48 hours.Final data was combined and statically analyzed with the help of SPSS 20.0 software ata level of being significance being 0.05.Results: As compared to ProTaper Gold, ProTaper Next showed the least score at 6and 12 hours of PEP, there was a statistically significant difference noted. At 24 and 48hours no statistically significance difference was noted among two groups.Conclusion: The intensity of PEP was minimum when treated with ProTaper Next filesystem along with Endoactivator.
