India90 participantsStarted 2026-05-01

Plain-language summary

Methodology Patient with diabetes 2 with informed consent -convenience sampling over a one year period.The tooth isolated with a rubber dam and the correct disinfection procedures will be used. researcher will do the Access preparation Working length -electronic apex locator (Dentsply Propex II) as well as a radiographic approach. After the canals will be obturated using ZOE sealer and gutta percha and post endodontic restoration is done using composite restoration. Patient is kept on follow up for 7days, 15 days, 30 days ,45 days and 60 days Clinical outcome is measure using periapical radiograph (RVG) Pain is measured using visual analog scale to mark the pain intensity. Data will be analysed statistically To enlarge the root canals (ISO size 20 file) A sterile paper point inside the root canal for one minute until the apex of the root canal is reached Using T.E Buffer, samples will be delivered to the School Of Basic Life Sciences, Sharda University. The samples will be subjected to traditional PCR analysis for the detection of Peptostreptococcus spp. in the root canal. Grouping Following instrumentation, 5% NaOCl and 17% EDTA irrigation will be done. Control group (n=15) The final irrigant will be saline Group 1 (n=15) Irrigation using 5% apple cider vinegar done The final irrigant will be saline Group 2 (n=15) Diode laser is used for disinfection in the presence of saline Group 3 (n=15) Gymnema Sylvestre Mother Tincture Q 1000 CH solution is used for disinfection in the presence of saline Group 4 (n=15) Diode laser is used for disinfection in the presence of 5% apple cider vinegar. The final irrigant will be saline Group 5 (n=15) Diode laser is used for disinfection in the presence of Gymnema Sylvestre Mother Tincture Q 1000 CH solution. The final irrigant will be saline After cleaning and shaping, samples will be collected and sent through T.E. Buffer to the School Of Basic Life Sciences, Sharda University. The samples will be subjected to traditional PCR analysis for the detection of Peptostreptococcus spp. in the root canal.

Questions worth asking your doctor

Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.

1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?

Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.

Questions for the trial coordinator

The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.

1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?

A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
