Inclusion criteria

* Participants between 18 - 60 years of age, * Good oral hygiene, * Have not taken any analgesics in the last day, * Have not taken antibiotics in the last week, * Patients diagnosed with asymptomatic irreversible pulpitis caused by deep carious lesion on the mandibular first or second molar teeth. * A prolonged positive response to cold vitality tests, * The presence of pulp, which is exposed during caries removing and bleeding with a dense and thick consistency. * The periapical region was healthy in radiographic diagnosis.

Exclusion criteria

* Devital teeth that have no response to pulp test, * The presence of advanced periodontal disease, * Having a systemic disease that requires antibiotic prophylaxis, * Radiographically more than 30° root inclination, presence of clear apex, presence of calcification, presence of root resorption, * The need for root canal treatment which is mesial and/or distal neighbour of the tooth to be treated, * The presence of a sinus tract in the relevant tooth region, * Having systemic diseases that reduce immune system resistance, * Participants with allergic sensitivity to materials and agents that should be used during the root canal treatment, * Allergic sensitivity to local anesthetics, * Pregnant participants or participants in the lactation period, * Over preparation or over filling during treatment, * Teeth which cannot be applied a rubber-dam, * Teeth which was damaged enough to require coronal fiber post application, * Sensitive to Ibuprofen based analgesics.

MeasureTime frameDescription
Pain level comparison after root canal obturation with three different endodontic sealers: VAS (Visual Analogue Scale) at 7th days.7th daysBased on the VAS (Visual Analogue Scale), the pain levels of the patients were assessed. The scale consisted of a 100-mm-long line divided into 10 equal intervals from 0 (no pain) to 100 (very severe pain). Every patient was asked to mark his or her perceived postoperative pain level on the line.
Pain level comparison after root canal obturation with three different endodontic sealers: VAS (Visual Analogue Scale) at 6th hours.6th hoursBased on the VAS (Visual Analogue Scale), the pain levels of the patients were assessed. The scale consisted of a 100-mm-long line divided into 10 equal intervals from 0 (no pain) to 100 (very severe pain). Every patient was asked to mark his or her perceived postoperative pain level on the line.
Pain level comparison after root canal obturation with three different endodontic sealers: VAS (Visual Analogue Scale) at 12th hours.12th hoursBased on the VAS (Visual Analogue Scale), the pain levels of the patients were assessed. The scale consisted of a 100-mm-long line divided into 10 equal intervals from 0 (no pain) to 100 (very severe pain). Every patient was asked to mark his or her perceived postoperative pain level on the line.
Pain level comparison after root canal obturation with three different endodontic sealers: VAS (Visual Analogue Scale) at 24th hours.24th hoursBased on the VAS (Visual Analogue Scale), the pain levels of the patients were assessed. The scale consisted of a 100-mm-long line divided into 10 equal intervals from 0 (no pain) to 100 (very severe pain). Every patient was asked to mark his or her perceived postoperative pain level on the line.
Pain level comparison after root canal obturation with three different endodontic sealers: VAS (Visual Analogue Scale) at 48th hours.48th hoursBased on the VAS (Visual Analogue Scale), the pain levels of the patients were assessed. The scale consisted of a 100-mm-long line divided into 10 equal intervals from 0 (no pain) to 100 (very severe pain). Every patient was asked to mark his or her perceived postoperative pain level on the line.
Pain level comparison after root canal obturation with three different endodontic sealers: VAS (Visual Analogue Scale) at 3rd days.3rd daysBased on the VAS (Visual Analogue Scale), the pain levels of the patients were assessed. The scale consisted of a 100-mm-long line divided into 10 equal intervals from 0 (no pain) to 100 (very severe pain). Every patient was asked to mark his or her perceived postoperative pain level on the line.
Pain level comparison after root canal obturation with three different endodontic sealers: VAS (Visual Analogue Scale) at 4th days.4th daysBased on the VAS (Visual Analogue Scale), the pain levels of the patients were assessed. The scale consisted of a 100-mm-long line divided into 10 equal intervals from 0 (no pain) to 100 (very severe pain). Every patient was asked to mark his or her perceived postoperative pain level on the line.
Pain level comparison after root canal obturation with three different endodontic sealers: VAS (Visual Analogue Scale) at 5th days.5th daysBased on the VAS (Visual Analogue Scale), the pain levels of the patients were assessed. The scale consisted of a 100-mm-long line divided into 10 equal intervals from 0 (no pain) to 100 (very severe pain). Every patient was asked to mark his or her perceived postoperative pain level on the line.
Pain level comparison after root canal obturation with three different endodontic sealers: VAS (Visual Analogue Scale) at 6th days.6th daysBased on the VAS (Visual Analogue Scale), the pain levels of the patients were assessed. The scale consisted of a 100-mm-long line divided into 10 equal intervals from 0 (no pain) to 100 (very severe pain). Every patient was asked to mark his or her perceived postoperative pain level on the line.
