Summary
This study aims to determine whether Trinase, an enzyme-based anti-inflammatory medication, can reduce pain after root canal treatment in patients with symptomatic irreversible pulpitis. A total of 182 male patients aged 18 to 50 years who present with moderate to severe tooth pain will be randomly assigned to receive either a Trinase tablet or a placebo 30 minutes before treatment. All root canal procedures will be performed in a single visit using standard endodontic techniques. Pain levels will be measured on a Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) before treatment and at 6, 12, 24, and 48 hours after treatment. Patients will also record the number of pain-relief tablets they take during the first 48 hours. The goal of the study is to see whether Trinase can lower post-operative pain and reduce the need for analgesic medication compared with placebo. This information may help improve pain management for patients undergoing root canal therapy.
