Evaluating Success of Root Canal Treatments and Retreatments Using BioRoot RCS and AH Plus Sealers in Adults

What this Trial Is About

Researchers are evaluating the success rates of initial and repeat root canal treatments using two different sealers BioRoot RCS and AH Plus. This prospective randomized controlled study aims to compare these sealers over a follow-up period of up to six years to see if there are significant differences in treatment success. The study focuses on patients diagnosed with irreversible pulpitis or apical periodontitis, including retreatment cases due to previous endodontic failure. Participants will receive either primary or secondary root canal treatment sealed with gutta-percha combined with either BioRoot RCS or AH Plus root canal sealers. The study groups are randomized to assess and compare the outcomes of these two sealers. Treatments are performed according to standard endodontic procedures, and follow-up assessments will take place over several years to monitor healing and treatment success. During the study, participants will undergo evaluations of clinical post-operative pain at multiple time points immediately after treatment and up to 48 hours later. Clinical signs or symptoms of periapical disease and radiographic healing will be assessed at 1, 2, 4, and 6 years post-treatment. Researchers will also analyze how prognostic factors correlate with clinical and radiographic outcomes throughout the follow-up period. Participants involvement may last up to six years, including regular check-ups and imaging studies to monitor long-term treatment results.
