摘要: Mechanical allodynia, defined as a reduction in mechanical pain threshold, is an essential diagnostic feature of inflammation the periodontal ligament. Traditional methods for measuring allodynia tooth are not quantitative. This study evaluated reliability new bite force transducer to measure thresholds, which might have application quantitative aid patients with apical periodontitis. To determine inter-observer reliability, subjects (n = 40) were given standardized instructions before generating maximal on maxillary first molars; readings then recorded by three examiners total ten per examiner. test-retest initial examiner retested at two different sessions. The intraclass correlation coefficient was fair substantial (0.3-0.64) and intra-observer (0.63-0.68). Thus, used our reliable method thresholds endodontic patients.
