This study aims to compare the postoperative pain and incidence of extrusion of two intracanal medications in the retreatment of single-rooted teeth. The main question it aims to answer is: Does the injection of intra-canal medication into the shaped root canal after complete removal of the old obturating material lead to post-operative pain and paste extrusion to periapical tissues or not?

Intra-canal medication
Intra-canal medication
Clinical assessment of the post retreatment pain.
Pain scores will be recorded on visual analog scale (VAS) using a 0 to 10 pain score basis with 0 being no pain and 10 being the worst pain the patient had ever experienced. (Record will be every 24h for 7 days)
Time frame: One week after re-treatment procdure
Radiographic assessment of the extrusion of the paste into periapical tissues using Digital radiograph
Extrusion of the paste into periapical incidence of extrusion: Conventional digital radiograph will be taken after using intracanal medication pastes.
Time frame: Immediate after retreatment
