Efficacy of Chronoterapy in Oral Surgery

ToothImpacted3 more

Lower third molar extraction is one of the most common treatments in oral surgery practice. It is a treatment with inherent complications such as postoperative pain, swelling or trismus. In order to minimize disconfort after extraction, analgesic and anti-inflammatory medication is prescribed. Recently, it is seen that circadian rhythm may play an important role on drugs metabolism, modulating its effect depending on the moment of administration. The aim of the study is to analyze if dosage modification of a Non Steroideal Anti-Inflammatory (ibuprofen) affects on postoperative pain, swelling and open mouth limitation comparing to the normal dosage.

Manual Therapy and Use of the Dynasplint for Trismus in Patients With Head and Neck Cancer

NeoplasmsHead and Neck1 more

The objectives of this pilot study are to determine the effectiveness of a manual therapy (MT) protocol plus the use of a dynamic jaw opening device on the maximal interincisor distance; on trismus symptoms; on pain-disability outcomes and on the quality of life, anxiety, and depression in subjects with trismus. The proposed pilot study will comprise a single subject design with multiple baseline measures and during treatment phases to determine the effectiveness of the treatment protocol. A minimum sample of 10 subjects will be recruited. The Health Research Ethics Board of Alberta Cancer Committee will approve this study. Participants will receive a MT protocol plus exercises and the use of the DTS device for 8 weeks. The first two weeks of treatment will involve only MT and opening exercises.After this initial 2 weeks, the DTS will be introduced. The participants will receive a session of 30-45 minutes of MT three/two times per week, for 8 weeks. All participants will be instructed how to use the Dynasplint® Trismus System at home. Analyses: Visual analyses will be performed on participant before, during, and after the intervention. The 2-standard deviation band method will be used to analyze the behavior of each participant on the outcome of interest before, during, and after the treatment. The minimally important difference levels in order to determine clinical relevance will be done. Two effect size indexes will be used: the percentage of non-overlapping data, and the percentage of improvement rate difference.
