Eligibility

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: 1. Patients requiring root canal treatment of maxillary premolar teeth with two root canals, diagnosed clinically as vital or non-vital using pulp sensitivity tests. 2. Patients ranging in the age group of 18-50 years. 3. Patients with non-contributory medical history. 4. Teeth with no pre-operative pain 5. Teeth with adequate coronal structure to ascertain proper isolation.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: A. PATIENT SPECIFIC: 1) Patients who refuse to consent for the procedure. 2) Patients with any systemic diseases, pregnancy or immuno - compromised conditions. 3) Patients on any antibiotic therapy in the past 3 months 4) Patients on any analgesic drugs in the past 7 days 5) Patients allergic to lignocaine in 1:80,000 concentration adrenaline 6) Patients allergic to Ibuprofen 7) Patients requiring root canal treatment of two or more teeth ipsilaterally (since the pain caused by any of these teeth can result in false positive reading) B. SPECIFIC TO DIAGNOSIS: 1) Teeth with acute apical periodontitis 2) Teeth with acute periapical abscess 3) Teeth with periapical radiolucencies of diameter greater than 0.5 cm (5 mm) 4) Teeth with an inflammatory exudate draining through the canal. 5) Necrotic painful teeth with absence of sinus tract for drainage 6) Re-treatment cases 7) Dilacerated teeth 8) Teeth with aggressive periodontitis or grade III mobility C. TOOTH SPECIFIC: 1) Teeth with calcified canals, immature apex and internal and external resorption. 2) Two root canals ending with a single apical foramen. 3) Severe labially or lingually malpositioned teeth in which obtaining straight-line access is difficult. 4) If a #10 K-file is very resistant to movement or if a #20 K-file easily goes to length, then teeth with such canals will be excluded (apical gauging).
