title: [Pain after obturation of the root canals].
abstract: This study was conducted to determine the incidence and degree of postobturation pain and to determine whether there is a significant relationship between pain and any clinical factors or conditions existing before, during, or at the completion of the root canal therapy. Of the 239 patients included in the study, 203 (84.9%) had no pain during the first 48 hours, 26 (10.9%) had slight pain, 5 (2.1%) had moderate pain and 5 (2.1%) had severe pain. Thirty days after obturation 3 patients had slight pain, 2 patients moderate pain and only one patient had severe pain. Meanwhile, we had to repeat the root canal therapy in 3 cases. Significant relationships were found between postobturation pain and obturation of the root canal past the apical foramen.
