Prospective study carried out in the Pediatric Dentistry Department of the International University of Catalonia. The sample was made up of children between 3 and 13 years old. Baseline pain status, functional limitation, edema and lesion diameter were evaluated. The treatment lasted 4 days. The parents recorded the intensity of the pain and the number of pills provided daily. Statistical significance was accepted with p≤0.05 and a 95% confidence interval.

A total sample of 33 patients, 11 boys (33 %) and 22 girls (67 %) was obtained. The average age of the children was 7.8 years (SD: 1.41). Numerical variables referring to pain, inflammation and edema presented statistically significant improvements (p-value <0.05). Healing efficacy was demonstrated in 13 cases (39 %) and only 3 cases (9 %) reported poor taste acceptability. ;
