Main Article Content
Abstract
Endodontic treatment involves the comprehensive care of symptoms before, during, and after the procedure, including the occurrence of post-operative endodontic discomfort, which can potentially become a chronic consequence. Post-operative pain is a frequent occurrence after surgery and is difficult to prevent. It has multiple causes and may be related to the acute inflammation of the area around the tooth's root, which can be caused by chemical, mechanical, host, or microbial damage during endodontic therapy. The key aspects of nursing during canal obturation encompass the implementation of aseptic technique, proficient coordination, effective instrument management, and clear communication between nurses and patients. Presented here are questions from patients on analgesic pharmacology, along with corresponding responses. The purpose is to educate patients and empower them to be more effective advocates for themselves. This study discusses the various methods by which pharmacists contribute to pain treatment and ensure the safety of prescribed drugs.
