Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Adults with mature permanent maxillary anterior teeth with apical periodontitis and no systemic conditions affecting healing, willing to follow up for 1 year.

Probably not a fit

Patients whose lesions do not respond to sealing materials or who experience complications unrelated to the sealer may not benefit.

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

What this trial studies

The study examines how two root canal sealers—NeoSEALER FLO, a bioceramic sealer, and AH Plus, an epoxy resin-based sealer—influence postoperative pain and periapical healing. Eligible participants have apical periodontitis in maxillary anterior teeth and are free of systemic diseases that could affect healing. The trial focuses on instrument cleaning, irrigation, and sealer application to achieve a tight root canal seal and promote repair. Outcomes include pain levels and radiographic or clinical signs of healing monitored over a 1-year follow-up. The study is conducted at Minia University with adult participants who meet the inclusion criteria.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, the better sealer could reduce pain and improve healing after root canal therapy.

How similar studies have gone: Bioceramic sealers have shown favorable biocompatibility in several studies, but direct comparisons with AH Plus remain mixed; this trial adds targeted data for this context.
