5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The study is designed as a randomized parallel controlled trial with three groups. Participants aged above 18 years with the first permanent molars with symptomatic signs of irreversible pulpitis will be randomly assigned into 3 groups. The first group (experimental group) will be injected with 4% articaine 1:100.000 epinephrine (inferior alveolar nerve block) will be anesthetized using 4% articaine 1:100.000 plus cryotherapy application, and the second group (experimental group) will be anaesthetised with IANB plus buccal infiltration. For the third group (control group), the mandibular molars will be anaesthetized using epinephrine using the inferior alveolar nerve block.
