Summary

Study subjects were obtained from the pool of OPD patients in the Department of Conservative Dentistry and Endodontics, PGIDS, Rohtak, and the Department of Cardiology, PGIMS, Rohtak. Baseline clinical, radiographic, and laboratory parameters (hsCRP and IL-6) were recorded. Patients were then randomly allocated to one of the two groups. In the test group, single-sitting root canal treatment was performed immediately, while in the control group, delayed endodontic intervention (after 3 months) was performed after three months. Clinical and laboratory parameters were again assessed at the end of 3 months in both groups. hsCRP and IL-6 indices were again done in the delayed treatment group after 3 months of root canal treatment.

Conditions

  • Cardiovascular Disease Risk Factor
  • Periapical Periodontitis

Interventions

PROCEDURE

root canal treatment and intracanal medicament

Access opening will be done after rubber dam isolation and administration of local anesthesia. debridement of the pulp chamber will be done and all canal orifices will be identified. Negotiation of canals will be done. Working length will be determined using root ZX apex locator and will be verified radiographically. Coronal enlargement will be done using Gates-Glidden drills. The apical third of the root canal will be instrumented up to size 35 for mesial and up to size 45 for distal canals. Finally, root canals will be further instrumented with step-back technique enlargement in 1 mm increments to 3 sizes larger than the master apical file. Irrigation will be carried out using 5 mL of a 5% NaOCl solution between files. The root canals will be dried using paper points and filled with lateral condensed gutta-percha (Dentsply Maillefer) and Zinc oxide Eugenol based sealer mixed according to manufacturers' instructions.
