Symptomatic Irreversible Pulpitis (SIP)
Conditions
Brief summary
The aim of this study is to assess the effect of different doses of diclofenac potassium premedication (100mg vs 50mg) on anesthetic success of 4% articaine buccal infiltration and post-operative pain as compared to placebo in mandibular molars with symptomatic irreversible pulpitis.
Detailed description
Patients with moderate-to-severe preoperative pain are selected. Patients receive either a single-dose of diclofenac potassium (100mg), diclofenac potassium (50mg) alone or a placebo tablet as a control. All patients will receive the assigned premedication one hour before single-visit root canal treatment. Anesthetic success of articaine buccal infiltration will be assessed during access and instrumentation. Postoperative endodontic pain is measured at the following time points: 6,12,24,48,72h and 7 days after treatment.

| Anesthetic success of articaine buccal infiltration | During the treatment | Will be recorded by 11 point NRS consisting of numbers from 0 through 10. 0: reading represents "no pain" 1-3 : readings represent "mild pain" 4-6 : readings represent "moderate pain" 7-10 : readings represent "severe pain" 0: reading represents "no pain" 1-3 : readings represent "mild pain" 4-6 : readings represent "moderate pain" 7-10 : readings represent "severe pain". Success will be defined as no to mild pain. |
