Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| To evaluate the response to the postoperative pain level of primary endodontic treatment with the visual analogue scale (VAS) method used to verify the expected outcome of pain or no postoperative pain in 24 hours, 48 hours and 7 days in the four study groups after completion of 200 endodontic treatments. It is expected to find in the groups with glycolic acid irrigating solution a reduction or no reports of postoperative pain in these 2 groups, based on the observation of a variation of at least 5% in post-intervention measurements at 24 hours, 48 hours and 7 days | — |
