Brief Summary:
To compare the post operative pain in pulpectomy of primary molars using a single rotary file system versus conventional manual instrumentation, through a Randomized Clinical Trial.
The main question it aims to answer is:
Is there a difference in post operative pain when using single rotary file system versus manual instrumentation in pulpectomy of primary molars?

Detailed Description:
Endodontic procedures remain among the most commonly performed treatments following the diagnosis of pulpal inflammation or pathology. However, in primary teeth, endodontic treatment poses substantial difficulties owing to its complex anatomy and canal systems
* Maintaining a primary tooth after successful root canal treatment is highly beneficial, as the preserved tooth serves as the most effective natural spacemaintainer
* In cases of irreversible pulpitis, endodontic therapy remains the most common and frequently performed procedure to alleviate pain
* Pulpectomy in primary molars is a critical treatment modality in pediatric dentistry when the pulp is irreversibly inflamed. Traditional instrumentation for pulpectomy often relies on manual files (e.g., stainless steel K-files), which can be time-consuming, technique sensitive, and may pose challenges due to the complex and delicate root anatomy of primary teeth
* Rotary nickel-titanium (NiTi) systems have potential advantages: more efficient preparation, reduced chair-time, and possibly better patient cooperation. Indeed, study has found that rotary instrumentation significantly reduces both the instrumentation and obturation time and is associated with lower postoperative pain
* Postoperative pain is one way to measure the success of endodontic treatment
