10-Minute Ebd: Preferred Analgesia For Orthodontic Tooth Movement: Acetaminophen Or Nsaids?, Ryan N. Mcgovern
The Journal of the Michigan Dental Association
This 10-Minute EBD column explores the choice between acetaminophen and NSAIDs for managing pain during orthodontic tooth movement. The author presents a scenario involving a patient's discomfort after archwire adjustment and delves into the impact of tooth movement on the periodontium. The PICO question focuses on the effectiveness of NSAIDs and acetaminophen in controlling discomfort without impeding tooth movement. The literature search reveals varying recommendations on analgesics, with some studies favoring acetaminophen. The evidence suggests that acetaminophen and short-term celecoxib are suitable choices for orthodontic analgesia. However, caution is advised in extrapolating findings from animal studies to human conditions.

The Journal of the Michigan Dental Association
This cover feature illuminates the transformative role of cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) in dental diagnostics and treatment planning. As CBCT evolves from specialized to commonplace usage, its impact on various dental specialties, including oral surgery, periodontics, orthodontics, and general dentistry, becomes apparent. The article underscores the necessity of understanding CBCT's fundamental concepts and emphasizes the importance of customized imaging protocols tailored to patients' needs. Comprehensive evaluation of CBCT scans reveals anatomical variations, aids in detecting periapical pathosis, visualizing root fractures, assessing external cervical root resorption, and contributes to airway analysis. Moreover, the article explores CBCT's expanding role beyond implant …
