Filter by:Objectives: This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of preemptive administration of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory Piroxicam-beta-Cyclodextrin on risk and level of tooth sensitivity caused by in-office bleaching procedures using 35% hydrogen peroxide. Fifty patients will be selected for this triple-blind, randomized, cross-over, placebo-controlled clinical trial. Piroxicam-beta-Cyclodextrin (200 mg) or placebo will be administrated in a single-dose thirty minutes prior to bleaching procedure. The whitening treatment with 35% hydrogen peroxide will be carried out in two sessions with a 7-day interval. Tooth sensitivity will be assessed Immediately before bleaching agent removal and up to 24 hours after each session the procedure using analog visual and verbal scales. Color alteration will be assessed by a bleach guide scale 7 days after each session. Relative risk to sensitivity will be calculated and adjusted by session; while comparison of overall risk will performed by Fisher's exact test. Data on the sensitivity level for both scales and color shade will be subjected to the Mann-Whitney and Friedman tests, respectively (α = 0.05).
The study will be completed as a two part, prospective, single-centre, randomised controlled trial. Five volunteers (dentists) will be recruited in the first part of the study to evaluate and examine the microneedle device and its use. Based on those qualitative findings (individual interviews and focus group) modifications to the microneedle device will be implemented before part two of the study commences. Twenty volunteers will be enrolled in the second part of the study. A split mouth design will be used to compare the efficacy of an array of 2x3 pyramidal wet-etch silicone microneedles of 280µm height with a standard 30-gauge short hypodermic needle in the delivery of local dental anaesthetic solution. Quantitative and qualitative measurements of the pain experienced and the depth of anaesthesia achieved will be recorded and compared.
This is a randomized, double blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group, single-center study in approximately 560 subjects to determine the overall analgesic efficacy and safety of a fixed-dose ibuprofen 250 mg / acetaminophen 500 mg formulation compared to ibuprofen 250 mg alone, acetaminophen 650 mg alone, and to placebo. Subjects will be healthy males and females aged 18-40 years, inclusive, who are experiencing post-operative pain following surgical extraction of 3 or more third molar teeth. Following extraction, subjects must experience, within 5 hours, post-surgical pain of at least moderate severity (on a 4-point categorical scale), confirmed by a Visual Analog Pain Severity Rating Scale (VAS PSR) of at least 50 mm on a 100 mm VAS PSR scale. Eligible subjects will be randomized to receive a single oral dose of study medication under double-blind conditions and then evaluated on site for 12 hours following administration of study medication. Subjects will provide self-ratings of pain severity and pain relief at various time points using categorical and numerical scales. Additionally, subjects will also evaluate the time to first perceptible relief and time to meaningful relief using a double stopwatch method. Finally, at 12 hours, subjects will complete a categorical Global Evaluation of the study medication. A review of any reported adverse events will also be completed.
An efficacy study assessing analgesic effect of ibuprofen/caffeine in post-surgical dental pain.
This study is being conducted to determine the overall analgesic efficacy and safety of a fixed-dose ibuprofen 250 mg / acetaminophen 500 mg formulation compared to placebo in subjects who are experiencing post operative pain following surgical extraction of 3 or more third molar teeth. A review of any reported adverse events will also be completed.
This is a Dental Pain Study which will evaluate the analgesic onset, efficacy and safety of 1000 mg acetaminophen as two Test acetaminophen 500 mg tablets, compared with commercial products of acetaminophen 1000 mg administered as two 500 mg caplets, and ibuprofen (IBU) 400 mg following third molar (wisdom tooth) extraction.
This proposal will investigate pain modulatory mechanisms and brain functional and structural characteristics using multiple MRI modalities in persistent dentoalveolar pain disorder (PDAP) patients with and without temporomandibular disorders (TMD). All measures from patients will be compared to painfree controls.
The investigators will assess the effects of manual acupuncture on experimental dental pain in 36 healthy subjects by means of subjective pain intensity ratings and pain-specific autonomic nervous system (ANS) reactions.
This is a Phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study in subjects scheduled to undergo elective bilateral third molar extraction under local anesthesia. At least one lower mandibular third molar must involve full or partial bony impaction confirmed by visual or radiographic evidence.
The study is designed to assess the efficacy and tolerability of diclofenac potassium soft gelatin capsules compared with ibuprofen tablets in patients with moderate to severe postoperative dental pain.
