Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Expected Primary endpoint is the presence of postoperative pain after endodontic treatment in two groups (A Reciproc Technique and B Protaper Technique), the pain presence is evaluated using a VRS scale for periods of 24 72h and 7 days the results will be presented by percentage and applied statistical test is the Mann-Whitney test.;The intensity of pain experienced by patients after endodontic treatment in the Reciproc group was similar to those in the ProTaper group (p > 0.05). In both groups, the highest levels of postoperative pain were recorded 24 h after each procedure, but these levels decreased after 72 h and 7 days after endodon- tic therapy, although differences were not significant (p = 0.55).
