Summary

In endodontics, various irrigation solutions are used to achieve antibacterial efficacy within the root canal. The antibacterial effect of curcumin-containing root canal solutions, when combined with photodynamic therapy, has been demonstrated in several studies. However, no research has specifically examined their effect on postoperative pain. The aim of this study is to investigate the impact of using a curcumin solution in combination with photodynamic therapy as the final irrigation solution on postoperative pain.

Conditions

  • Periapical Diseases
  • Postoperative Dental Pain
  • Irrigation Solution
  • Photodynamic Therapy (PDT)

Interventions

OTHER

Curcumin with photodynamic thearpy

root canals will irrigated with final irrigation procedure: curcumin+photodynamic therapy. The teeth will be isolated with a rubber dam, and an access cavity will be created. After root canal preparation, the final irrigation procedure will be performed. Root canal treatments will be completed, and the patients' postoperative pain levels will be recorded using follow-up forms.

OTHER

Control group

root canals will irrigated with routine root canal final irrigation with NaOCl and EDTA. The teeth will be isolated with a rubber dam, and an access cavity will be created. After root canal preparation, the final irrigation procedure will be performed. Root canal treatments will be completed, and the patients' postoperative pain levels will be recorded using follow-up forms.
