About

The objective of the study is to determine which of the two commonly used endodontic medications (Eugenol VS Articaine) is most effective in controlling postoperative pain in irreversible pulpitis of the mature permanent tooth in adults. To do so, an assessment of the pain felt by patients will be carried out a few days apart. The supposed results are that the medications are equivalent in terms of effectiveness on the pain, but could then present different economic arguments

Full description
