Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The aim of this study is to clinically compare post-operative pain levels after administration of preoperative single dose of sodium ibuprofen versus placebo for patient with symptomatic irreversible pulpitis related to mandibular molar teeth.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
Phase 1/Phase 2

Detailed Description

Oral pharmacologic agents have been the primary option, and the use of drugs has increased exponentially. Many pharmacological agents have been used to manage endodontic pain, including Non-steroidal Anti-inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs),.administration of NSAIDs before root canal treatment will reduce inflammatory process before it begins. NSAIDs are widely used to control post endodontic pain They act by blocking the activity of cyclooxygenase (COX 1 and 2) enzyme. In human dental pulps with irreversible pulpitis, a higher level of expression of COX 2.In cases of irreversible pulpitis NSAIDS can be administered preoperatively since they reduce the level of prostaglandinE2(PGE2) which is responsible for sensitization of nociceptors. Ibuprofen is one of the most commonly used NSAIDs and a potent inhibitor of prostaglandin (PG) synthesis that can manage various pain types and has anti-inflammatory activity. Enhancements in ibuprofen acid's pharmacokinetics have led to the development of ibuprofen salts with a faster dissolution rate and onset of action. These ibuprofen salts.Fast acting ibuprofen like Sodium ibuprofen delivers maximum plasma drug concentrations at about 30-40 min, compared with around 90-120 min for standard ibuprofen acid formulations

  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. postoperative pain [Post-operative pain will be assessed immediately after treatment ,at 6 hours, at 12 hours, at 24 hours and 48 hours]

      pain will be measured by visual an alogue scale). It is a line numbered from 0-10. Patients will be asked to choose the mark that represented their level of pain from 0 to 10. Pain level will be assigned as follow: 0, "no pain" 1-3, "mild pain" 4-6, "moderate pain" 7-10, "severe pain" "10" being the most intense pain conceivable.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. need for rescue medication [Amount of analgesics taken by the patient after root canal treatment, up to 48 hours postoperatively]

      Amount of analgesics taken by the patient after root canal treatment
