An interventional study of Max-i-Probe and NaviTip in Symptomatic Irreversible Pulpitis, sponsored by Cairo University. Completed. Open to participants aged 16 Years to 65 Years. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2019-10-08.
Sponsored by Cairo University · Not applicable, Interventional, and Prevention
The aim of this prospective, randomized, clinical trial was to evaluate the effect of the side-vented Max-i-Probe versus the end-vented NaviTip as endodontic needles during syringe irrigation on post-operative pain in adult patients with symptomatic irreversible pulpitis in posterior mandibular teeth.
The aim of this prospective, randomized, clinical trial was to evaluate the effect of the side-vented Max-i-Probe versus the end-vented NaviTip as endodontic needles during syringe irrigation on post-operative pain in adult patients with symptomatic irreversible pulpitis in posterior mandibular teeth. Medical and dental history was obtained from all participants in this trial and clinical examination for teeth was performed. Participants with symptomatic irreversible pulpitis were included. After access cavity preparation, participants were randomly assigned to one of the following groups: experimental group (Max-i-Probe) or control group (NaviTip). One-visit root canal treatment was performed . Each patient received a 48-h diary to record postoperative pain. Post-operative pain was measured at the following time points: 4, 12, 24 and 48 hours after root canal treatment.

Postoperative pain using a pain-measuring scale
Postoperative pain is measured using the Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) which is an 11-point scale from 0-10 where 0 represents no pain and 10 represents the worst pain measured 4h after root canal treatment
Time frame: 4 hours
Postoperative pain using a pain-measuring scale
Postoperative pain is measured using the Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) which is an 11-point scale from 0-10 where 0 represents no pain and 10 represents the worst pain measured 12h after root canal treatment
Time frame: 12 hours
Postoperative pain using a pain-measuring scale
Postoperative pain is measured using the Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) which is an 11-point scale from 0-10 where 0 represents no pain and 10 represents the worst pain measured 24 h after root canal treatment
Time frame: 24 hours
Postoperative pain using a pain-measuring scale
Postoperative pain is measured using the Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) which is an 11-point scale from 0-10 where 0 represents no pain and 10 represents the worst pain measured 48h after root canal treatment
Time frame: 48 hours
