Interventions
AH Plus and PAI 2-3
The AH Plus root canal sealer, mixed in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions, will be applied together with master cones into root canals with PAI scores of 2-3. Control periapical radiographs will be obtained to evaluate the quality of the root canal fillings. Volunteers will be asked to record the pain they experience before treatment and at the 6th, 12th, 24th, 36th, 48th, and 72nd hours, as well as 1 week after treatment, using a Visual Analog Scale (VAS) form. One week after treatment, volunteers will be contacted by telephone, and the pain scores recorded on the pain assessment forms will be entered into the patient records. Six months after completion of the endodontic treatment, volunteers will be contacted by telephone and recalled for follow-up. Control periapical radiographs will be obtained from the volunteers, and healing will be evaluated.
AH Plus and PAI 4
The AH Plus root canal sealer, mixed in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions, will be applied together with master cones into root canals with PAI score of 4. Control periapical radiographs will be obtained to evaluate the quality of the root canal fillings. Volunteers will be asked to record the pain they experience before treatment and at the 6th, 12th, 24th, 36th, 48th, and 72nd hours, as well as 1 week after treatment, using a Visual Analog Scale (VAS) form. One week after treatment, volunteers will be contacted by telephone, and the pain scores recorded on the pain assessment forms will be entered into the patient records.
