Brief Summary  

Background- Pain management during and after root canal treatment is one of the most important aspects of endodontic practice. One of the primary reasons for initiating endodontic treatment is to rid the patient of the excruciating pain. In order to control this pain and the potential pain precipitated as a result of endodontic treatment, various strategies have been devised and one of these include “cryotherapy”. It is based on the principle of extracting heat from the applied area rather than implementing cold. The use of cryotherapy during endodontic treatment is gradually becoming pervasive. This study is planned and carried out so as to test the effectiveness of cryotherapy.

Aim- The purpose of this study is to compare and evaluate the effect on postoperative pain of patients with symptomatic irreversible pulpitis using cold saline at 2.5ËšC and physiological room temperature saline as the final irrigant after single-visit root canal treatment.

Method and Materials- 30 patients to undergo endodontic treatment in mandibular first molars are selected, on the basis of predetermined criteria and divided into two groups. Biomechanical preparation is done and final irrigation is carried out with either 2.5⁰C cold saline or saline at room temperature. Patients will be asked to rate the intensity of their postoperative pain using visual analogue scale at 6h, 24h and 1 week.
