Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Comparator Agent  Photo activated Disinfection  Canals will be irrigated with 10ml of 2.5% NaOCl. Canals will be filled with 0.01% toluidine blue photosensitiser and stirred with #10K file to avoid bubbles. Endo light tip will be inserted into the canal & irradiated for 30sec with Fotosan 630. 
Intervention  Ultrasonic activation  The Canals will be irrigated with 5ml of 2.5% NaOCl solution and passively activated with ultrasonics in two planes simultaneously, i.e., for 20 seconds in the buccolingual direction and another 20 seconds in the mesiodistal direction of the root canal, 2 mm short of the working length. total time duration of 40 seconds

Response - NO
Brief Summary   Primary Endodontic infections are caused by microbial infection of the pulp and periapical tissues. Complete healing of the disease depends upon the elimination of micro-organism and their byproducts from the root canal system. Due to canal complexities, it is difficult to eradicate the infection through instrumentation once. Irrigation plays a vital role in disinfection of the root canal system. the irritant activation using various techniques have shown to improve irritant penetration and efficacy in several in vitro studies. This randomised controlled trial will be undertaken to evaluate the antimicrobial efficacy of two different activation techniques on microbial reduction in primary Endodontic infections.
