Protocol summary

Study aim
Evaluation of effect of diode laser in the healing process of periapical lesions of single channel anterior teeth with root retreatment
Design
A controlled, single-blind, randomized clinical trial
Settings and conduct
Selection of 24 patients who need endodontic retreatment in anterior teeth, preparation of parallel radiographs of patients, and devising them randomly into two groups. In both groups, canal cleaning and shaping are done in the first session. For group 2, in the second session, after the final washing with distilled water, 940nm laser is used by Smile Doctor device with 200-micrometer fiber, continuously and 1.5watts. In each channel, 2 seconds of radiation will be done for every millimeter of channel length. Radiation is done twice in each channel. Fiber optic that if 1mm shorter than the working length will be used in the circumferential direction of the canal. The healing process of periapical lesions of patients will be followed up before, 3 and 6 months after treatment, and measured by parallel radiography and periapical index. After collecting data, it will be analyzed and statistically interpreted.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Entry: to 40-year-old, no medical history, periapical lesion in the radiograph, patient's consent Exit: illiterate patient, systemic disease, history of antibiotic use and hospitalization, a tooth that is periodontally and endodontically complex and incurable
Intervention groups
Intervention group: in the second session, after the final washing with distilled water, 940nm laser is used by Smile Doctor device with 200-micrometer fiber, continuously and 1.5watts. Control group: Routine root canal treatment
Main outcome variables
Laser power, periapical index, age, gender, root fracture/crack, root resorption , transportation, ledge, the apex of the root, sinus tract, periodontal pocket, tooth mobility, and overfilling

Sample size
Target sample size: 24
Randomization (investigator's opinion)
Randomized
Randomization description
The randomization method is the lottery. We prepare 24 sealed envelopes that contain the type of root retreatment of the patient's tooth. 12 of the envelopes are retreatment with laser and 12 of the envelopes are retreatment without laser. These envelopes will be provided to the patient reception department in random order, and when the patient is admitted, an envelope will be randomly selected and the treatment method of the patient will be determined. The randomization unit is the patients. The randomization tool is a sealed envelope. Only the person who prepared the envelopes knows the contents of the envelope.
Blinding (investigator's opinion)
Single blinded
Blinding description
Patients who participate in the study will only be informed that they will be randomly assigned to one of the groups of endodontic retreatment or endodontic retreatment with laser by receiving the consent form. For the analyzer, the control and intervention groups are not distinguishable.

Intervention groups

1

Description
Intervention group: In the second session of treatment, after the final washing with distilled water, a 940 nm laser is used. Laser radiation is performed by a smile doctor device with 200-micrometer fiber, continuously (CW) and 1.5 watts. In each channel, 2 seconds of radiation is done for each millimeter of channel length. Radiation is done twice in each channel. Fiber optic that if 1 mm shorter than the working length will be used in the circumferential direction of the canal.
