    Outcomes

    Primary Outcome Measures

    Post-operative pain : measure pain level change from zero(no pain) pain Post-operative pain Post-operative pain
    The pain will be recorded according to the modified visual analogue scale. The scale consists of a line marked from 1 to 10 where 10 represent the most intense pain imaginable and the worst outcome.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    Number of analgesics taken by the patient after endodontic treatment
    Counting Number of analgesics taken by the patient after endodontic treatment

    5. Study Description

    Brief Summary
    The aim of the present study is to clinically compare the incidence of postoperative pain after root canal preparation using TruNatomy system and HyFlex Electrical Discharge Machined (EDM) rotary system in asymptomatic necrotic mandibular molars.
    Detailed Description
    Up till now, there are no clinical studies on the effect of instrumentation using TruNatomy files on post-operative pain. Furthermore, these newly introduced files can provide more affordable means for instrumentation. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to clinically compare the effect of using TruNatomy files and HyFlex EDM files on post-operative pain.
