Abstract

During orthodontic treatment, patients will feel pain due to the pressure of the tooth movement mechanism. This condition can be controlled by administering drugs, one of which is a class of analgesics. As a result of taking drugs during orthodontic treatment is known to have side effects that can interfere with the orthodontic treatment process, one of which is the inhibited rate of tooth movement which will cause complications that can affect the goals of orthodontic treatment. This scoping review discusses the effect of analgesic drugs on orthodontic tooth movement and how certain analgesic drugs affect the rate of orthodontic tooth move-ment, which was carried out by literature study. Data obtained in the Google Scholar, Science Direct and PubMed databases show the inhibition of the rate of orthodontic tooth movement due to the drugs ibuprofen, nimesulide, morphine, codeine, methadone, high-dose tramadol, meloxicam, high-dose etoricoxib, aspirin and algocamin. These drugs inhibit the rate of tooth movement by blocking the prostaglandin synthesis pathway, which is key to orthodontic tooth movement. It is concluded that there is an effect of certain analgesic drugs on orthodontic tooth movement.
