MR-107A-01 is being studied to investigate its efficacy, safety, and dose-response after dental surgery.
To assess the safety, tolerability, analgesic, efficacy and pharmacokinetics of high dose acetaminophen relative to placebo and low dose acetaminophen relative to placebo over a 24 hour period in patient experiencing moderate to severe pain following the surgical removal of third molar.
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.
To assess the safety and effectiveness one dose of a new pain reliever medicine (JNJ-10450232 at either the 250 or 1000 mg strength) compared with placebo (sugar pill) or acetaminophen 1000 mg after surgical removal of third molars. The primary endpoint will evaluate pain relief effectiveness up to 6 hours after administration of the study drug.
Researchers are looking for a better way to relieve pain in people, such as after dental surgery. Participants in this study, have had 3 or 4 third molars (cheek teeth) removed and subsequently have moderate to severe tooth pain. The study treatment naproxen sodium suppresses inflammatory pain by reducing inflammation. In the US, naproxen has been marketed since 1976, and naproxen sodium has been approved for over-the-counter (OTC) use since 1994 for the temporary relief of minor aches and pains. Caffeine, which is generally consumed as coffee, tea, or cocoa, has been shown to enhance the effect of various painkillers, and therefore is accepted as an additive. The main purpose of this study is to learn how well a fixed-dose combination of naproxen sodium and caffeine relieves pain compared to each single ingredient as well as to placebo in participants after molar removal. A placebo is a treatment that looks like a medicine but does not have any medicine in it. To answer this, the researchers will compare the amount of pain decrease over 8 hours in participants who received a single dose of either: * 1 fixed-dose tablet of naproxen sodium/caffeine * 2 fixed-dose tablets of naproxen sodium/caffeine * naproxen sodium only * caffeine only * or placebo The study participants will be randomly (by chance) assigned to one of the five treatment groups. They will take a single dose of two tablets by mouth within 4.5 hours after the surgery. If there is no pain relief within 2 hours after intake, other painkillers may be given.
To evaluate the efficacy of a single dose NTC-510 or NTC-510A for dental pain following third molar extraction.
This study will assess the safety and efficacy of lumiracoxib 400 mg in relieving moderate to severe post-dental surgery pain, compared to both placebo and celecoxib 400 mg.
Patient demographics (age, height and weight) will be collected for 546 consecutive patients presenting for dental restoration under general anesthesia. The baseline saturation will be recorded. The induction of anesthesia will be standardized for all patients. All patients will undergo an inhalational induction administered by face mask. After inserting an intravenous (IV) line, rocuronium will be administered. Intravenous propofol and fentanyl could be added at the discretion of the anesthesiologist. The patients will be mask ventilated then be with a mixture of Air/Oxygen (O2) to achieve an FiO2 of 0.3 for 3 minutes after the administration of rocuronium. Patients will be randomly assigned to one of three groups for the purpose of airway management: 1) direct laryngoscopy for nasotracheal intubation without oxygen insufflation (DL group); 2) direct laryngoscopy for nasotracheal intubation with oxygen insufflation (DLO2 Group); and 3) nasotracheal intubation using the Truview PCD video laryngoscope (VL Group). Computer-generated treatment allocations (using the PLAN procedure in SAS statistical software, using random-sized blocks) will be maintained in sequentially numbered sealed envelopes that will be opened after consent is obtained. The laryngoscopy and intubations will be performed by the study investigators who are faculty anesthesiologists or by the mid-level or resident or fellow working with them. The study will be stopped when: * the patient will be intubated and a CO2 trace is obtained on the capnography or * if the patient desaturates to 90% * or if the patient shows signs of cardiac instability (ectopic beats, arrhythmia or hypotension) Randomized groups will be compared for balance on potentially confounding baseline variables using descriptive statistics. Primary outcome: In the primary hypothesis, desaturation will be characterized using both time to 1% saturation drop from the baseline and the rate (slope) of desaturation after an initial 1% drop. We will consider a given intubation technique (DLO2 or VL) better than DL on controlling saturation if found noninferior (i.e., not worse) on both outcomes and superior on at least one of the outcomes. Thus our primary hypothesis will be assessed in a joint hypothesis testing framework described by Mascha and Turan. We a-priori define the non-inferiority delta for the outcome time to 1% drop as 5 seconds (or 1.05 if using hazard ratio) and the slope delta as 0.05 percent per second.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of various oral analgesic regimens in minimizing post-operative pain and discomfort in young children following dental rehabilitation under general anesthesia (DRGA). In this randomized controlled trial, three analgesic regimens following DRGA in Franciscan Children's Hospital will be compared using both self-report and behavioral measures. The analgesic therapies to be investigated are ibuprofen monotherapy, alternating ibuprofen and acetaminophen dual-therapy, and combined ibuprofen and acetaminophen dual-therapy. For the purposes of this study, combined therapy is defined as the simultaneous administration of acetaminophen and ibuprofen at regular intervals, whereas alternating therapy is defined as one analgesic (acetaminophen or ibuprofen) administered within a 3 hour interval of the other.
The purpose of this research study is to compare responses in children during dental injections of local anesthetic (used for numbing), while children are under deep sedation (breathing on their own, often with a loss of consciousness). Two types of local anesthetic will be used--one will be buffered (by adding a salt solution to make it less acidic), while the other will be plain, without anything added. Previous studies have shown that the addition of the buffer solution can improve comfort during a dental injection.
The goal of this study is to determine whether intravenous sedation would contribute to the stabilization of hemodynamics in adult patients during periodontal/implant surgery compared to receiving local anesthesia during periodontal/implant surgery
This is a dental pain study evaluating the efficacy and safety of a single dose of test acetaminophen (ACE) (1000 mg) compared to commercial acetaminophen (1000 mg), ibuprofen (IBU) (400 mg), and placebo over a 6 hour period. Subjects will undergo dental extraction of three or four third molars.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of acetaminophen ER 1500 mg (two 750 mg tablets) over 10 to 12 hours in the dental pain model following third molar extraction(s) and to evaluate the pharmacokinetics of acetaminophen ER 1500 mg (two 750 mg tablets) in a sub-group of subjects.
To find out if a drug called tapentadol administered by mouth safely relieves pain in children. Look at the amount of tapentadol in the blood after a single oral dose. Tapentadol oral solution for children is still being tested and is not yet registered. Tapentadol tablets are effective in treating both acute and chronic pain in adults. This trial will help to understand how tapentadol oral solution works in children.
To determine the clinical effectiveness of combined use of pre-emptive analgesia and long acting anesthesia for pain suppression following dental implant surgery as measured by a validated numerical rating scale and the information related to consumption of post-operative medications.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the analgesic efficacy of a single intranasal (IN) administration of ketorolac after dental impaction surgery.
To evaluate the safety and efficacy of single IV doses of N1539 after dental impaction surgery.
The surgical placement of dental implants is presently a common procedure performed by oral surgeons, periodontists, and general dentists. The surgery can be performed under local anesthesia and involves the incision of soft tissue to expose the underlying bone, preparation of the implant site using a specialized surgical drill, and.screwing the implant into bone using a specialized headpiece. Dental implant patients experience postoperative pain yet there are no studies in the literature which have evaluated the efficacy of analgesics in this patient population. The current pilot study will evaluate the analgesic effects and tolerability of a recently FDA-approved analgesic formulation of intranasal ketorolac (SPRIX®) in 25 patients who have 1 - 3 dental implants surgically placed. Patients will self administer the ketorolac nasal spray (one spray in each nostril, 31.5 mg total dose) when their postoperative pain reaches at least a moderate severity. Pain intensity and pain relief scores will then be recorded every 20 minutes for the first hour, at 1.5 and 2 hours and then hourly through 6 hours on a validated analgesic diary. Side effects will be recorded when and if they occur. Patients will then transition to a multi-dose phase where they will be allowed to dose with ketorolac as indicated in the package insert (up to 4 times per day for 5 days). Patients will record the time of each dose, a daily assessment of overall efficacy and side effects, and the use of any rescue medication (acetaminophen 650 mg) on a take home diary.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of acetaminophen 650 mg and acetaminophen 1000 mg in dental surgery.
RATIONALE: The use of dentures and dental implants may help maintain chewing and speaking ability following surgery to remove tumors in the mouth. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of dentures and dental implants in maintaining the ability to chew and speak in patients undergoing surgery for mouth cancer.
The goal of this observational study is to compare two techniques routinely used to increase bone volume in the jaw prior to placing a dental implant, called osseocondensation and osseodensification. The study participants are healthy adults who are planning to get a dental implant. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Is there a difference in wound closure and soft tissue healing following implant placement using osseocondensation versus osseodensification? * Is there a difference in bone density around implants placed with osseocondensation versus osseodensification? * Is there a difference in patient experience during surgery and early phases of healing with osseocondensation versus osseodensification? Researchers will compare implant sites where the osseocondensation technique was used to sites where the osseodensification technique was used to see if there are differences in the outcomes. It is important to note that the research study will not affect what treatment the participants get. The choice of which technique to use will be made by the dentist who is treating them, based on their clinical judgement. The researchers will only compare the outcomes for the techniques. For the research study, participants will undergo additional clinical measurements besides those done as the normal post-operative checks, and will fill out questionnaires about their experiences with the procedures. Getting the bone-increasing procedure and getting the dental implant are not part of the research study.
