Chewing Gum Effect in Reducing Orthodontic Pain After Separator and Initial Arch Wire Placement

5. april 2021 opdateret af: University of Malaya

The Effect of the Chewing Gum in Alleviating Orthodontic Pain After Separator and Initial Arch Wire Placement: A Randomized Clinical Trial

Pain is the most claimed complaint from orthodontic treatment. Fear of pain has contributed to patients' avoidance of seeking orthodontic treatment, affects patients' compliance to treatment and even becomes the main reason for discontinuing orthodontic treatment. For years, orthodontic patients have reported using analgesics during orthodontic treatment to ease the pain. However, analgesics have many side effects such as allergic reactions, bleeding disorders, gastric ulcers, liver toxicity and their potential influence in slowing down tooth movement. This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of chewing gums in pain reduction in Malaysian multi-ethnic orthodontic patients and to explore the possibility of chewing gum to be recommended as a suitable substitute for analgesics in our future practice.

Detaljeret beskrivelse

Orthodontic treatment have been shown to cause varying degrees of discomforts and pain to the patients. Fear of pain has contributed to patients' avoidance of seeking orthodontic treatment, affect patients' compliance to the treatment and even become a main reason of discontinuing orthodontic treatment. Patients have reported using of analgesic particularly NSAIDS and Paracetamol during orthodontic treatment to ease the pain. However, NSAIDS have been associated with various side effects such as allergic reactions, bleeding disorders and gastric ulcers had raised the concern of orthodontists. Studies on animals have shown that NSAIDS slower the rate of tooth movement, hence affecting orthodontic treatment efficacy. Paracetamol have been reported to cause liver toxicity in the case of over dosage.

The action of chewing the gum can produce forces to temporary displace the teeth sufficiently to allow blood flow through compressed area, preventing the build-up of metabolic products, thus reduce the pain severity. In addition, non-sugared chewing gum has anti-caries effect which is very important to prevent caries formation during orthodontic treatment.

This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of chewing gum in pain reduction in orthodontic patients and to explore the possibility of chewing gum to be recommended as a suitable substitute for analgesics in future practice.

Eksperimentel: intervention group
Participants will receive Wrigley Extra Strawberry Flavour Sugar Free Chewing Gum. They will be instructed to chew the gum for pain relief after the separator and initial arch wire placement if required. Chew the gums for 10-12 minutes and as much as they want whenever they feel discomfort or pain. They are free to take any medication when necessary and respond to the questionnaires on the amount of chewing gum and analgesics used.
