Brief Summary   Reduction and elimination of the infecting bacteria inside the root canal system plays a key role in success of endodontic therapy.The effectiveness of instrumentation on bacteria in dentinal tubules and lateral canal ramifications is limited which is leading to pulp therapy failure.Intracanal medicaments were introduced for infection control and also to prevent contamination between appointments.The proposed study intends to evaluate beneficial effect of propolis as an intracanal medicament in comparison to calcium hydroxide and double antibiotic paste in primary non vital teeth.
