Results clinical assessment of the application of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs for pain symptoms occurring after endodontic dental treatment

Pain is one of the most common and most difficult on subjective perception of dental symptoms. These domestic and foreign literature stating a fact that more than 80% of patients after endodontic treatment there is a feeling «fullness» in the tooth, pain when biting on the tooth, radiating to neighboring teeth or along the branches of the trigeminal nerve. From the pathogenesis point of view, the above manifestations are acute toxic-traumatic neuropathy of the trigeminal nerve. This often leads to an unreasonable removal of a qualitatively and competently cured tooth. A comparison was made of the analgesic activity of ketanov in the relief of pain that occurs after root canal filling, with the analgesic activity of nimesulide in 57 patients aged 20 to 55 years. In acute pain, an analgesic effect with the administration of ketanov appeared within 15 to 20 minutes, with the administration of nimesil, the effect occurred within 30-40 minutes. After a course of treatment, patients in both groups significantly decreased irritability, sleep normalized. Patients believed in the success of treatment, because a decrease or a significant decrease in the pain syndrome reflexively leads to an improvement in the psycho-emotional sphere of patients, which in turn favors long-term remission.
