Asymptomatic apical periodontitis is a condition where the tissue around the tip of the tooth root is inflamed or shows a lesion on X-ray, but the patient does not feel pain.\n\nA total of 60 patients aged 18-55 years will be recruited at the Department of Operative Dentistry, Fatima Memorial Hospital, Lahore. Eligible patients will have non-vital teeth with fully formed roots and periapical lesions classified as PAI scores 2-4. Patients with systemic diseases, periodontally compromised teeth, or complications during treatment will be excluded.\n\nPatients will be randomly assigned to two groups: Group A will receive root canal obturation using bioceramic sealer, and Group B will receive resin-based sealer. The treatment procedure involves standard root canal cleaning and shaping, irrigation, and obturation using a single-cone technique with Gutta-percha.\n\nPostoperative pain will be assessed using a Numeric Pain Rating Scale (0-10) at 4, 24, and 48 hours after obturation. The highest pain score reported across these time points will determine the outcome. Pain levels will be classified as: None (0), Mild (1-3), Moderate (4-7), or Severe (8-10). Patients with severe pain (8-10) will be considered treatment failures, while all others will be considered treatment successes.\n\nData will be analyzed using SPSS.
