Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| To evaluate and compare the antimicrobial efficacy of ultrasonic-activated irrigation, diode-laser irradiated irrigation, and conventional irrigation using 3% sodium hypochlorite in reducing intracanal microbial load in single-rooted tooth canals.Timepoint: Baseline (immediately after access cavity preparation), 3 days (after canal irrigation and mechanical debridement) | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| 1. Comparison of percentage reduction in CFU counts among the three groups conventional, ultrasonic-activated, & diode laser-activated irrigation. 2. Determination of the most effective activation technique in achieving maximal microbial reduction. 3. Assessment of smear layer removal efficacy indirectly through enhanced microbial reduction following activation. 4. Correlation of microbial reduction with irrigation method to determine the overall disinfection efficiency of each technique. Timepoint: Baseline (immediately after access cavity preparation), 3 days (after canal irrigation & mechanical debridement) | — |
