Summary

The aim of this study is to determine whether inferior alveolar nerve block of ketorolac and lidocaine would improve the success rate in teeth with symptomatic irreversible Pulpitis.

Design: In this randomized double-blind clinical trial, sixty healthy adult volunteers with including criteria have been randomly divided into two groups (n=30). Following the 5 minutes of the first IANB using 1.8 ml 2% lidocaine 2% containing 1:100000, the patients of case group have received a standard inferior alveolar nerve block injection that used 1 ml ketorolac tromethamine 30 mg/ml. The patients of the control group received a sham injection. After achieving the lip numbness, access preparation initiated after 15 minutes of initial IANB with two negative responses to the electric pulp test. Any pain during caries and dentin removal, access cavity preparation, and root canal preparation have been recorded using analog visual scale (HP-VAS). The success was considered as none or mild pain during treatment. The data have been analyzed using Mann-U-Whitney test.

Intervention main outcome measures: Pain during caries and dentin removal access cavity preparation, and root canal preparation using VAS.

Conditions

  • Symptomatic Irreversible Pulpitis

Interventions

DRUG

Ketorolac Tromethamine

The 30mg/mL vial of Ketorolac will be injected as second inferior alveolar nerve block and the success of anesthesia will be evaluated using visual analog scale.

BEHAVIORAL

Sham injection

In the control group, the sham injection will be provided at the same place of the first inferior alveolar nerve block but any injection would be done.
