Protocol summary

Study aim
The aim of this study is to determine the effect of 980 nm low-power laser on postoperative pain after a single-visit endodontic retreatment in mandibular molar teeth with periapical lesion in patients referred to an endodontic specialized clinic.
Design
This will be a randomized triple blind clinical trial.
Settings and conduct
This will be a randomized triple blind clinical trial. The research is going to take place in Department of endodontics, Faculty of dentistry, Tehran medical sciences, Islamic Azad University, Tehran, Iran.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Patients included in this study were scheduled for RCR on mandibular molars, presented with periapical lesions with scores 2 or 3 in accordance with the periapical index classification introduced by Ørstavik et al, and had a pain VAS <56 and a percussion pain VAS <56. All patients were in good health as determined by health history and verbal questioning. Periodontal probing greater than 3 mm, swelling or sinus tract, and palpation and percussion VAS>56 are the exclusion criterias. Besides, all the teeth that have been diagnosed to be unrestorable after the endodontic retreatment in the primary evaluations, will be excluded from the study.
