The Effect of Sealer Type and Obturation Technique on Postoperative Pain

Jordan120 participantsStarted 2022-10-07

Plain-language summary

Postoperative pain is an important consideration in endodontic treatment, and its incidence may be influenced by both obturation technique and sealer type. This study focused on molars to minimize anatomical variability and provide a consistent assessment of pain associated with different endodontic protocols. This study aimed to evaluate the incidence and level of postoperative pain in molars treated with root canal therapy, in relation to the type of sealer and obturation technique used.
