This system has shown through the past years an acceptable clinical success rate but it also have many problems such as long visit time affecting the child behavior and causing fatigue to the dentist, difficulty in dealing with thin and curved canals due to limited flexibility of manual files causing incomplete removal of pulp tissue, and also difficulty in the determination of the actual working length due to the presence of physiologic and pathologic root resorption.\n\nRationale for conducting the research:\n\nPulp therapy in primary molars becomes compromised sometimes after delayed treatment due to dental neglect of children till caries progression to the pulp leading to severe symptoms associated with excessive pulp inflammation, root resorption, or periradicular bone resorption with a less favorable prognosis for conventional endodontic therapy. In the current era, a new perspective which is less time consuming with an acceptable success rate could be a spark of hope for the pediatric patient as well as the dentists.\n\nMany studies were done comparing manual vs pediatric rotary files but without definitive conclusion. So further studies should be done with higher sample size to determine the superiority of one system over the other.\n\nBenefits for the practitioner:\n\n* Providing new and alternative treatment options.\n* Shorter instrumentation time.\n* Less fatigue.\n* Better preparation of the canal.\n\nBenefits for the patient:\n\n* A faster and easier process leading to a more efficient dental procedure which could develop better outcomes in terms of success.\n* Improvement in patient as well as parent satisfaction.\n\nBenefits for community:\n\n* Using alternative technique that can be faster, with a better success rate.\n* To boost overall oral health.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['CHILD'], 'maximumAge': '6 Years', 'minimumAge': '4 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': True, 'eligibilityCriteria': "Inclusion Criteria:\n\nChildren:\n\n* Cooperative children.\n* 4-6 years old children.\n* Children who will attend follow up.\n\nTeeth:\n\n* Bilateral lower second primary molars.\n* Pulpally involved molars indicated for pulpectomy.\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\nChildren:\n\n* Children with physical or emotional alteration.\n* Children with systemic diseases.\n* Children of parents who don't accept to participate in the study.\n\nTeeth:\n\n* Teeth with more than 1/3 of root resorption.\n* Teeth with pathological mobility.\n* Necrotic teeth with periapical or furcal lesions.\n* Non restorable teeth."}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT05665803', 'briefTitle': 'Comparative Evaluation of Instrumentation Time Using Pediatric Rotary Versus Hand (Flare) File Systems', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Cairo University'}, 'officialTitle': "Comparative Evaluation of Instrumentation Time, Obturation Quality, and Child's Behavior Using Pediatric Rotary Versus Hand (Flare) File Systems in Treatment of Primary Molars: a Split Mouth Randomized Clinical Trial", 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'Pediatric rotary files'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'Pediatric rotary files', 'description': 'Biomechanical preparation will be done using pediatric rotary file system (Kedo-SG blue file system).
