Summary

Background This randomized clinical trial evaluated the effect of two different hemostatic materials for endodontic microsurgery on bleeding control, postoperative pain and patients' quality of life.

Methods Thirty-four subjects affected by apical periodontitis with clinical and radiographical indications for endodontic microsurgery were randomly divided into two groups: in the first group (n=15) a surgical glue was tested and in the second group (n=19) the ferric sulfate was used for hemostasis. The bleeding and the surgical field visibility during the intervention were evaluated. The postoperative pain and quality of life (QoL) was recorded through a numerical rating scale (NRS) and an Oral Health Impact Profile-14 (OHIP-14) questionnaire for seven days. The number of analgesics consumed during the same intervals was also recorded. Statistical analysis was performed using the Chi-Square test, Mann-Whitney test, and Fisher t-test (P=0.05).
