Enjoy a FREE lunch and hear from expert Paul Desjardins, DMD, PhD. The ADA Dental Pain Guideline provides recommendations for how to treat common types of dental pain. The Dental Pain Study Model (Third Molar Extraction) has been an effective model to evaluate the effectiveness of treatment options for dental pain, as well as to generate comparative data between treatment options. As applied to post-procedural pain, the model is highly controlled and provides consistency in the procedures and level and type of pain from patient to patient making it a dependable tool for evaluating pain relief.
