BACKGROUND
Orthodontic treatment often induces pain, especially post appliance placement. This study compares transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) and acetaminophen for orthodontic pain management.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
A randomized trial included 120 fixed orthodontic patients divided into three groups (n = 40): Group A received TENS, group B received acetaminophen, and group C was the control. Data were expressed as mean ± SD. Repeated ANOVA analysis compared mean values, followed by post-hoc Tukey analysis. Pain levels were assessed using a visual analog scale before any intervention and at 30 minutes, 6 hours, and 24 hours post activation.
RESULTS
TENS and acetaminophen significantly reduced pain compared to the control. Group A (TENS) showed significant pain reduction post activation. Group B (acetaminophen) exhibited comparable pain relief, with no significant difference between groups.
CONCLUSION
Both TENS and acetaminophen effectively manage orthodontic appliance activation pain.
背景
正畸治疗常引发疼痛，尤其是在矫治器放置后。本研究比较经皮电刺激神经疗法（TENS）和对乙酰氨基酚用于正畸疼痛管理的效果。
材料与方法
一项随机试验纳入了120名接受固定正畸治疗的患者，分为三组（每组n = 40）：A组接受TENS治疗，B组接受对乙酰氨基酚治疗，C组为对照组。数据以均值±标准差表示。采用重复方差分析比较均值，随后进行事后Tukey分析。在任何干预前以及激活后30分钟、6小时和24小时，使用视觉模拟量表评估疼痛程度。
结果
与对照组相比，TENS和对乙酰氨基酚均能显著减轻疼痛。A组（TENS）在激活后疼痛显著减轻。B组（对乙酰氨基酚）的疼痛缓解程度相当，两组之间无显著差异。
结论
TENS和对乙酰氨基酚均能有效管理正畸矫治器激活引起的疼痛。
