Abstract

90% of patients with orthodontic treatment report postoperative pain to the application of mechanical forces, reaching maximum discomfort at 24 hours. Studies suggest the use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory analgesics (NSAIDs) for the control and management of pain as the method of choice. The aim of the present review was to evaluate existing literature on NSAIDs used in patients undergoing orthodontic treatment and its relationship with the inflammatory process, review pharmacological alternatives and suggest the most appropriate medication for the management and control of pain. In order to carry out this study, databases such as Pubmed, Scielo, ScienceDirect, EBSCOhost, and Google Academic were used, having as search limits documents published between 2006 and 2018, with the exception of two studies, one from 1996 and the other from 2000, which provided information of great relevance. Articles were considered as systematic reviews, prospective and retrospective studies. It was concluded that it is important to manage the pain involved in orthodontic treatments without interfering with the inflammatory process that accompanies it. When analyzing different NSAIDs, no significant differences were observed in terms of pain reduction, with the exception of Paracetamol, which is considered the most appropriate, because it concentrates its action at the CNS level, not altering the synthesis of Prostaglandins and allowing the dental movement. It is suggested that studies be conducted on drugs such as Indomethacin, Diclofenac, Flurbiprofen and Etoricoxib, due to the lack of evidence in this regard.
