Brief Summary: The goal of this clinical trial is to compare in Tramadol, Naproxen sodium and Placebo in participants presenting with irreversible pulpitis in their mandibular posterior teeth.

The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are:

* Local anesthetic efficacy and .
* Postoperative pain. Participants will receive premedication treatments 60 minutes prior to the local anesthesia administration.

Researchers will compare Tramadol, Naproxen sodium and Placebo to evaluate their effects on Inferior alveolar nerve block efficacy and Postoperative pain.
Detailed Description: The adult participants who report in out-patient department (OPD) of Operative Dentistry at Dow International Dental College with the symptoms of irreversible pulpitis will be screened for the participation in the study. A detailed history will be taken which will be followed by clinical examination and complemented with sensibility testing with Endo Ice or electric pulp test. Radiographic analysis will also be done to confirm the diagnosis to assess for factors pertaining to exclusion and inclusion criteria. Verbal and written informed consent will be taken from all the participants.

Randomization: The participants will be randomly divided into 3 groups by envelope method.

Group A will receive premedication of Oral tramadol 100mg, Group B will receive premedication of oral naproxen 550mg. Both medicines will be given 60 minutes prior to the local anesthesia administration. The third group, Group C, will be the control group and no active preoperative medication will be given to these participants. A placebo will be given to these participants. These medications will be given as a single intervention only.

Blinding: Clinician and participants both will be blind to the medicine given to the participants. Participants will be allowed to pick envelopes and a paramedical staff will be trained in giving medication to the participants.

Pain scores will be recorded by asking the participant to rate their pain on a scale ranging from 0 to 10 before medication and then after 15 minutes, 30 minutes and 60 minutes of administering the premedication. Pain score will also be recorded after 10 minutes of the administration of Inferior alveolar nerve block (IANBs) and buccal nerve block \& during deroofing process of chamber opening.

Two cartridges of Lidocaine 1.8 ml having a concentration of 1:100,000 of Epinephrine will be used for administration of regional anesthesia. Access opening will be performed under rubber dam isolation with a Mani number 245 bur in a high-speed hand piece with copious water irrigation. Sodium hypochlorite (5.25%) will be used as a standard root canal irrigation solution.Pulpectomy will be performed with Mani K-files (8-25) till respective working lengths of the teeth under study.

To assess the post-operative pain, a proforma and pain intensity scale will be provided to the participants for self recording at 6, 24, 48 and 72 hours after the procedure. The participants will return the proforma to an intern on 3rd day to be assessed by an intern supervised by the principal investigator.

(For this research, "The investigators will be offering As per need analgesic for breakthrough pain. Participants will be offered brufen 400mg as needed. The participants will be advised to mark breakthrough pain on VAS at the time of taking medicine).

The participants will also be monitored for the adverse effects of these medications (nausea, vomiting, dizziness, drowsiness) as a secondary outcome .at above-mentioned time-intervals.
