Overview

Randomised trial compares clinical and radiographic success in adult molars, indicating similar outcomes for both agents.

Key Points

  • The sodium hypochlorite group exhibited a clinical success rate of 91.8% at 12 months follow-up, compared to 84% for chlorhexidine.
  • No significant difference was found in postoperative pain between the sodium hypochlorite and chlorhexidine groups (p > 0.05).
  • Time to achieve haemostasis was significantly shorter for the sodium hypochlorite group (p < 0.001), while hard tissue barrier formation was noted more in the chlorhexidine group.
  • Both agents proved comparable in managing carious pulp exposure, suggesting chlorhexidine is a suitable alternative to sodium hypochlorite.
