Postoperative Pain Associated With Resin And Bioceramic Based Sealers: A Systematic Review

The main aim of root canal treatment is to eliminate the necrotic pulp tissue, debris and microorganisms from the root canal and also to disinfect and provide a three dimensional obturation.[1] All these steps should be performed with the aim of minimal postoperative discomfort. Postoperative pain is usually provoked by various factors- mechanical, chemical, presence of bacteria within the anatomical complexity of the canal space, iatrogenic and treatment related factors. [2] The treatment related factors include poor estimation of working length, improper instrumentation, choice of sealer and extrusion of sealers/ obturating materials.
