Effect of cryotherapy, laser therapy and intraligamentary dexamethasone injection on post-treatment pain after single visit RCT–A double-blinded, randomized placebo-controlled trial
Aim: This study designed to evaluate the effect of adjuvant therapies on the intensity of post-treatment pain after single-visit RCT in molars with symptomatic apical periodontitis. Method: ology: This trial was reported according PRIRATE 2020 guidelines and registered with CTRI/2019/03/018,153.100...

| description | Aim: This study designed to evaluate the effect of adjuvant therapies on the intensity of post-treatment pain after single-visit RCT in molars with symptomatic apical periodontitis. Method: ology: This trial was reported according PRIRATE 2020 guidelines and registered with CTRI/2019/03/018,153.100 patients diagnosed with symptomatic apical periodontitis with a preoperative pain allocated to 4 groups,Group-1: placebo,Group-2:Intraligamentary injection of dexamethasone, Group-3:cryotherapy, Group-4: laser therapy. Patients were instructed to record postoperative pain intensity and intake of analgesics after 6,12,24,48 & 72 h. Intergroup pain intensity was tested by using the Kruskal-Wallis test. The need for painkillers between groups was analyzed using Chi-square test. P value of <0.05 was considered statistically significant.Results: Patients in the placebo group exhibited higher intensity. Group 3 showed lesser pain at all-time intervals. Conclusion: All the adjuvant pain management therapies reduced the intensity of postoperative pain and the frequency of intake of analgesics. |
