Individual Participant Data (IPD) Sharing Statement

Will individual participant data (IPD) be shared publicly (including data dictionaries)?  

Response - NO
Brief Summary
Modification(s)  
After following the inclusion and exclusion criteria, patients would be divided among six groups and bacterial counts will be estimated before and after the biomechanical preparation of root canals. The obtained colony counts will be compared to check the efficacy of Neem juice and Bitter gourd juice with and without ultrasonic activation against primary Endodontics infections.
