The purpose of this study was to compare to evaluate the post operative pain with different calcium hydroxide formulations when used as intracanal medicament in root canal which was evaluated by VAS scale. The 150 subjects were randomly assigned to four groups and one control group depending upon the intracanal medicament: Group 1: Calcium hydroxide paste (Ivoclar) was used as intracanal medicament, Group 2: Calcium hydroxide paste with iodoform (Metapex) was used as intracanal medicament, Group 3: Calcium hydroxide points (Hygenic) was used as intracanal medicament, Group 4: Calcium hydroxide paste using chitosan (0.2%) as vehicle was used as intracanal medicament, Group 5: Control group containing dry sterile cotton. The incidence and intensity of preoperative pain and experienced post operative pain (on 6, 12, 24 hour and 48 hour) after first visit of treatment were assessed according to patient’s recordings in visual analogue scale. The medicament causing least operative pain are ranked according to superiority as Calcium hydroxide paste > Calcium hydroxide points > Calcium hydroxide with chitosan > calcium hydroxide with iodoformAt 6 postoperative hour, least post operative pain was recorded by the calcium hydroxide points and high post operative pain in calcium hydroxide with iodine (Metapex). At 12th, 24th, 48 postoperative hour least post operative pain was recorded by calcium hydroxide paste (Apexcal).

The complete and three-dimensional fluid tight seal of the root canal system is the final component of the endodontic triad. The long-standing and closest material which has fulfilled this criterion is gutta-percha (GP). Several materials have been tried and tested as an endodontic filling material, of which GP has been most extensively used for years and has established itself as a gold standard. In addition, it has proved itself successful with different techniques of obturation while maintaining its basic requisites. This article deals briefly with the history and evolution of GP, source, chemical composition, manufacturing, disinfection, cross-reactivity, and advancements in the material.
