Clinical Trial Summary

The aim is to investigate and to find a correlation between tramadol addiction misuse among Algerian males and Dental Local Anesthesia success while performing dental care and oral surgeries.


Clinical Trial Description

Local anesthesia is by far the most important part of pain control in dentistry, it is the cornerstone that makes many dental procedures possible, not only for the patient but also for the dentist and dental hygienists. Since the pain and the dentist are almost synonymous for the patient, this makes dental anesthesia the most widely administered drugs in the dental clinics. Hence, the failure of local anesthesia in oral medicine presents an undesirable outcome both for the patient and for the practitioner. The intraoperative pain being prevented by the administration of a local anesthesia must be followed by the management of the postoperative pain which can be often intense and thus requiring drugs administration. These drugs could be nonopioid or opioid analgesics which are also frequently used in general medicine as Tramadol. Tramadol is 2-(dimethyl amino)-methyl)-1-(3'-methoxyphenyl) cyclohexanol hydrochloride. It is 4-phenyl-piperidine analogue of the opioid drug codeine. It is generally well tolerated with few and rare side effects. Moreover, comparative studies have mostly shown that Tramadol is more effective than NSAIDs for post operative pain control. However, its misuse is increasingly growing and has become obvious in Algeria. Tramadol addiction has become very frequent, and its unjustified use is expanding. This might be attributed to the fragility of the health system and the replacement of the qualified pharmacists by non-qualified helpers or assistants. ;
