Postoperative pain of patients with necrotic teeth with apical periodontitis following single visit endodontic treatment versus multiple visit endodontic treatment using triple antibiotic paste: a randomized clinical trial.

ABSTRACT: Background: A randomized clinical trial was conducted to compare the postoperative pain following endodontic treatment of necrotic teeth with apical periodontitis. Treatments were performed in multiple visits with application of triple antibiotic paste interappointment dressing or single visit without interappointment dressing. Methods: In total 44 participants were assigned randomly into two groups. Group A: multiple visit endodontic treatment with triple antibiotic paste interappointment dressing; group B: single visit endodontic treatment without interappointment dressing. Postoperative pain of participants was assessed after 24, 48, 72 hours and one week using numerical rating scale. Results: No statistically significant difference was found in postoperative pain after 24, 48, 72 hours
