Description

Jia Liu, Fangfei Li, Xiaolong Liang, and Jiahui Niu compare two filling pastes for single-visit root canal treatment, in a 2025 study. The patients suffered acute irreversible pulpitis, a hot, throbbing tooth inflammation. After cleaning the canal, the filling choice may decide how fast pain settles.

Records covered 112 patients treated at one center between 2022 and 2024, split evenly by filling used. One group received an iodoform and calcium hydroxide paste known for germ killing and tissue friendliness. The other got the standard combination of rubber points with a zinc-based sealer, packed by a classic technique. The team timed pain relief and swelling resolution, among other outcomes. Head-to-head data on this paste in one-visit care had been scarce.
