Brief Summary:

Background: Sealers have been concerned with obturation. However, studies for assessing the effectiveness of endodontic treatment of sealer based on Calcium Silicate have been not much.

Objective: This study aimed to assess the effectiveness of endodontic treatment of sealer based on Calcium Silicate Methods: A prospective, single-blind, clinical trial was conducted from June 2020 to December 2020 with 42 irreversible pulpitis teeth by one clinician. The postoperative pain was assessed after root canal treatment using sealer based on Calcium Silicate and sealer based on Epoxy resin after 6 hours, 12 hours, 24 hours, 48 hours, 72 hours and 7 days and inconvenient symptoms were assessed after 7 days, 3 months and 6 months. t-test, Mann-Whitney and Wilcoxon analysis were applied.

Key words: obturation, sealer based on Calcium Silicate and sealer based on Epoxy resin

Arm Intervention/treatment
Active Comparator: Epoxy resin-based sealers (ERS)
After root canal preparation, canal obturation was performed with Epoxy resin-based sealers (ERS)
Drug: Calcium silicate-based sealers (CSS)
All teeth received one-visit endodontic treatment according to the treatment protocol of the Vietnamese Ministry of Health with the support of three-dimensional imaging equipment and an endodontic machine. After root canal preparation, obturation was performed using Calcium silicate-based sealers.
Other Name: Calcium silicate-based cement

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Change in pain intensity over time [ Time Frame: after 6 hours, 12 hours, 24 hours, 48 hours, 72 hours and 7 days after treatment ]
    The investigator instructed patients on how to use the 170-mm Heft-Parker self-assessment scale to evaluate their pain intensity. Swelling, fistula, and sensitivity under biting pressure were classified as binary variables.

  2. Change in pain relief over time [ Time Frame: after 6 hours, 12 hours, 24 hours, 48 hours, 72 hours and 7 days after treatment ]
    The investigator instructed patients on how to use the 170-mm Heft-Parker self-assessment scale to evaluate their pain intensity. Swelling, fistula, and sensitivity under biting pressure were classified as binary variables.

  3. Change in treatment outcome evaluation over time [ Time Frame: 1 week, 3 months and 6 months after treatment ]
    Based on Strindberg's criteria of clinical symptoms, the treatment outcome evaluation was then expressed as success, failure, or uncertain depending on the presence of symptoms
