Summary

The objective of this prospective randomized double-blind study was to evaluate the effects of the preoperative administration of dexketoprofen trometamol (DKT) on the pain perceived by patients after oral surgery for implant placement.

Materials and Method: Single oral doses of 25 mg DKT or PLACEBO were administered 15 minutes before the performance of conventional implant surgery to assess the influence of the DKT on pain as reported by the patients. One hundred patients who required single-implant treatments were randomly distributed into one of the two blinded groups following a preliminary examination. Fifteen minutes before surgery, the patients in the test group were given 25 mg DKT (DKT group), and those in the control group were given 500 mg vitamin C as a placebo (PLACEBO group). The patients' pain intensities were measured using a subjective visual analogue scale of 100 mm in length, and pain was measured over a period of 7 days. Inflammation was assessed using a 5-point Likert scale on days 2 and 7.
