| It is expected to find a lower occurrence and intensity of postoperative pain in the intervention group, with a difference of 25% between the groups | — |
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| To evaluate the occurrence and intensity of post-operative endodontic pain by applying a discrete numeric scale marked from zero (no pain) to 10 cm (maximum pain), in patients participating in the research over a period of 6, 12, 24, 48 and 72 hours after endodontic treatment. | — |
