Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This clinical trial aims to evaluate and compare postoperative pain, swelling, and quality of life in patients undergoing endodontic microsurgery using either conventional osteotomy or piezoelectric osteotomy. A total of 44 adult patients will be randomly assigned to one of the two techniques, and their postoperative experiences will be assessed through a standardized pain questionnaire at multiple time intervals. The study will be conducted at the postgraduate clinics of the Department of Conservative Dentistry at Jordan University of Science and Technology, with ethical approval obtained from the institutional review board. Participants will receive treatment free of charge, and their travel expenses for follow-up visits will be compensated.
