Detailed Description
Introduction: Instrumentation kinematic is one of the many aspects of shaping files that underwent heavy development through the last decade. The impact of the type of motion used to drive shaping instruments was heavily studied but mostly in-vitro. More randomized clinical trials are needed to achieve a reliable body of data concerning the issue.
Aim: This study aimed to evaluate the effect of varying shaping files' kinematics on bacterial reduction, post-operative pain and the incidence of flare-ups. Methods: Necrotic, asymptomatic, single-rooted mandibular premolars with single canals were used in the study, where 46 patients were randomly allocated to two groups. In the first group, WaveOne Gold was used for mechanical preparation while One Shape was used in the second group. Samples were taken preoperatively (S1) and after chemomechanical preparation (S2). Bacterial reduction was evaluated and compared between both groups via culturing technique and quantitative analysis by real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR). Post-operative pain and the incidence of flare-ups were also evaluated using the visual analog scale (VAS) method.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- bacterial reduction [up to 1 hour]
pre-instrumentation and post-instrumentation bacterial cultures to detect change in bacterial count after root canal instrumentation with the different kinematics
- post operative pain [after the treatment visit by 24 hours]
Visual analogue scale from 0-100 where 0 is the lowest and 100 is the highest
- post operative pain [after the treatment visit by 48 hours]
Visual analogue scale from 0-100 where 0 is the lowest and 100 is the highest
- post operative pain [after the treatment visit by 72 hours]
Visual analogue scale from 0-100 where 0 is the lowest and 100 is the highest
