Root Canal Obturation

Primary outcomes

  1. Pain level comparison after root canal obturation with three different endodontic sealers: VAS (Visual Analogue Scale) at 6th hours.

    Time frame: 6th hours

    Based 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.

    Time frame: 12th hours

    Based 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.

  3. Pain level comparison after root canal obturation with three different endodontic sealers: VAS (Visual Analogue Scale) at 24th hours.

    Time frame: 24th hours

    Based 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.

  4. Pain level comparison after root canal obturation with three different endodontic sealers: VAS (Visual Analogue Scale) at 48th hours.

    Time frame: 48th hours

    Based 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.

  5. Pain level comparison after root canal obturation with three different endodontic sealers: VAS (Visual Analogue Scale) at 3rd days.

    Time frame: 3rd days

    Based 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.

  7. Pain level comparison after root canal obturation with three different endodontic sealers: VAS (Visual Analogue Scale) at 5th days.

    Time frame: 5th days

    Based 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.

  8. Pain level comparison after root canal obturation with three different endodontic sealers: VAS (Visual Analogue Scale) at 6th days.

    Based 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).
