Visual analogue scale is a measure of pain intensity. In the present study, the visual analogue scale included a 10 cm straight horizontal line numbered at each centimetre from 0 to 10 showing two extreme symptoms of pain. "0" means no pain and "10" means the worst pain the subject has ever experienced. Each centimeter represents the pain intensity that the subject will mark orientated from 0 to 10. The intensity is increased from 0 to 10, therefore a higher score means a higher pain intensity and a worse outcome. 1-3 means "mild pain", 4-6 means "moderate pain" and 7-9 means "severe pain". There are no subscales.

R-Pilot® was operated by an endomotor (VDW Silver, Munich, Germany) at "Reciproc All" setting.

ProGlider® was operated by an endodontic motor (X-Smart, Dentsply Sirona, Ballaigues, Switzerland) with 16:1 contra angle at the suggested settings (300 rpm on display, 5 Ncm).

In the manual glide path group, glide path creation was performed with stainless steel #08, 10, 15 K-files used with "push and pull" motion. Instruments were used with a motion in which the instrument proceeds apically quarterly to the point of resistance, then is pulled out for debris removal. The procedure was repeated with each file until the working length was achieved and confirmed with an electronic apex locator (Root ZX Mini, Morita Corp., Kyoto, Japan).

VAS is a measure of pain intensity. In the present study, the VAS included a 10 cm straight horizontal line numbered at each centimetre from 0 to 10 showing two extreme symptoms of pain. "0" means no pain and "10" means the worst pain the subject has ever experienced. Each centimeter represents the pain intensity that the subject will mark orientated from 0 to 10. The intensity is increased from 0 to 10, therefore a higher score means a higher pain intensity. There are no subscales.
