Using intraligmentary dexamethasone to reduce the pain intensity during and after root canal preparation
Aim :asseing the effect of intraligmentary dexamethasone on anesthetic efficacy of inferior alveolar nerve block and buccal infiltratation in lower first molar with irreversible pulpitis and apical periodontits, dexamethasone has antiinflammatory effect so it will improve the efficacy of anathesia and reduce postoperative by inhibition the production of phosopholipase and reduction of prostaglandins synthesis Methods: diagnose the case clinically and readiographically Patients will divide into 3 groups First group will be given inferior alveolar nerve block 4%articaine Hcl1:100 epinephrine Second group will be given inferior alveolar nerve block 4%articaine with intraligmentary dexamethasone Third group will be given buccal infiltratation 4%articaine with intraligmentary dexamethasone After anathesia ,make access cavity and reduce the occulsa surface and make it out of occulsion . Working length determination will be done by apex locator and confirm it by x ray . Mechanical preparation will be done by FANTA files and apply EDTA on files Irrigate the canal by Naocl 2.5٪ Complete the root canal preparation through single visit. Obturate the canal by single cone technique and bioceramic sealer. During procedures , record pain intensity on HP visual scale Follow up the patient after 6,12,24 and 48 hours Describe Ibuprofen 200mg in case of sever pain Conclusion : it's predictable that the intraligmentary dexamethasone will reduce the pain during and after root canal procedures

Intraoperative pain
Efficacy of buccal infiltration anesthesia and inferior alveolar nerve block measured during procedures of root canal treatment using numerical rating scale.It is a line numbered from 0-10 , where pain levels are categorized as follows: 0= no pain, 1-3 = mild pain, 4-6= moderate pain, 7-10= severe pain, "10" being the most intense pain conceivable.And instruct patient to raise his hand if he feels pain to reasse if he needs supplementary anathesia
Time frame: During procedure
Post-operative pain
Patient will record the pain on numerical rating scale (6,12,24 \&48h)..It is a line numbered from 0-10 , where pain levels are categorized as follows: 0= no pain, 1-3= mild pain, 4-6= moderate pain, 7-10 = severe pain, "10" being the most intense pain conceivable
Time frame: After procedure until 48hour
Number of needed analgesic tablets in case of intolerable pain
Ibuprofen 200mgm tabs have been described to patient in case of sever pain (above6)
Time frame: After procedure until 48hour
