Official title
Temporo-masseteric Nerve Block in Post-wisdom Tooth Extraction Pain- a Randomized Study
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The proposed design is a triple-blind, placebo-controlled randomized prospective phase II trial to assess the feasibility of employing the Temporo-masseteric Nerve Block (TMNB) injection to decrease jaw muscle pain, overall pain, improve mouth opening and minimize pain medication consumption. 80 participants undergoing lower third molar removal under sedation will be enrolled. Those who develop significant jaw muscle pain on the following day will be randomized to receive either the TMNB injection or a placebo. Daily ecological momentary assessments (EMAs) will be collected reflecting elements of patient experience for all participants. On Day 8, participants return for an end-of-study evaluation and return their unused pain medications. Up to 40 participants who are randomized to receive TMNB/placebo will be recruited to participate in a qualitative interview regarding their experience.
