Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The goal of this study is to test garlic oil mixed with zinc oxide as a potential root canal filling material of primary molars in children aged from four to eight years.

the study hypothesized that garlic oil mixed with zinc oxide would be the same as the gold standard filling material (metapex).

The group receiving the garlic oil with zinc oxide as root canal filling material will be compared with other similar group receiving metapex as root canal filling material in terms of clinical and radio-graphic success, and working time.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This study is a randomized clinical trial (RCT), that aims compare the clinical and radio-graphic success of garlic oil mixed with zinc oxide, used as root canal filling material in primary molars in children aged from four to eight years, with the conventional root filling material, which is metapex.
