Postoperative Pain in Photodynamic Therapy Using Curcumin As a Photosensitizer

Fifty patients were randomly assigned to two groups using a web-based program, according to the selected final irrigation procedure: curcumin-photodynamic therapy or a control group (routine root canal final irrigation with NaOCl and EDTA). The teeth will be isolated with a rubber dam, and access cavities will be created. After root canal preparation, the final irrigation procedure will be performed. Root canal treatments will then be completed, and the patients' postoperative pain levels will be recorded using follow-up forms.
