Journal Title: INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF SCIENTIFIC STUDY - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 8
Abstract
Aim: The aim of the is to evaluate the incidence of Post-operative pain in Single versus Multiple visit Root Canal treatment of vital and non-vital single rooted teeth in Jammu population. Materials and Methods: 200 subjects were selected fulfilling the inclusion crietria and were divided into 2 groups of 100 subjects each. Group I included vital pulp subjects out of which 50 were endodontically treated in asingle visit and 50 in multiple visits. Group I included vital pulp subjects out of which 50 were endodontically treated in a single visit (SV) and 50 in multiple visits (MV). Group II included non-vital pulp subjects out of which 50 were endodontically treated in asingle visit and 50 in multiple visits. The subjects (both groups) were asked about their experience of post –operative pain and to rate it. A follow-up evaluation was made of the radiographic findings and clinical data. The data was subjected to statistical analysis using the chi-square test by SPSS software version 20. Results: Statistically insignificant relationship was found between different genders and pain perception (p=0.8006). Also, no statistically significant realtion of pain perception with age of the subjects (p=0.9509). It was also found that the difference in pain perception among individuals receiving endodontic treatment in single vs multiple visit was not significant (p=0.9213) and there was no significant difference in the incidence of post operative pain between vital and non vital teeth. Conclusion: It can be concluded that there was no difference in the incidence of postoperative pain between vital and non vital teeth. The majority of patients in either group’s reported no or only mild pain. Also, the number of visits does not have any impact on the amount of pain. However it is suggested that number of visits for endodontic treatment should be less ti minimize the patient discomfort.
