Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare Cryotherapy with occlusal reduction in the reduction of post-endodontic pain in molars with symptomatic apical periodontitis. The main question it aims to answer is:
Is there is a difference in post-endodontic pain intensity following cryotherapy or occlusal reduction in patients with symptomatic apical periodontitis on mandibular first molars?
Participants will undergo root canal treatment including cryotherapy or post-operative occlusal reduction.
Researchers will compare [Cryotherapy, occlusal reduction, and no intervention] to see the intensity of post-endodontic pain.
