Brief Summary   This study aims to compare post-operative tooth pain after root canal treatment using two different endodontic file system - ProTaper Gold rotary file system and WaveOne Gold reciprocating file system in patients with controlled diabetes mellitus.
Root canal therapy is commonly associated with post-operative pain, and this pain may vary depending on the instrumentation technique used.
The study will evaluate post-operative pain intensity using a Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) at specific time intervals after the procedure (6 hours, 24 hours, 48 hours, 72 hours, and 7 days).
Findings from this study may help in selecting the appropriate root canal technique to minimize pain in diabetic patients.
