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.
