Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Measuring in (ML) the quantity of dental anesthesia used in each participants group to achieve analgesic effect

    The quantity (ml) of dental anesthesia used to perform dental and oral surgery procedure among tramadol addicted and non-addicted patients will be mesured to investigate the difference.

    3 months

  • To determine the number of dental anesthesia carpules used for each group participants during dental and oral procedures

    Among addicted and non-addicted patients, the number of carpules of dental anesthesia necessary for total analgesic effect will be determined.

    3 months

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • To determine the quantity ( mg) of tramadol and the time of consumption ( in months) necessary to cause dental anesthesia failure among addicted patients.

    3 months

Study Arms (2)

Tramadol Addicted Patients

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

It represents the group of tramadol addicted patients seeking dental care that require dental anesthesia.

Drug: articaine@ (4% 1:100000 epinephrine) dental anesthesia

Non addicted patients

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

The group of patients requiring dental care with local anesthesia and who are not addicted to tramadol.

Drug: articaine@ (4% 1:100000 epinephrine) dental anesthesia

Interventions

Administration, calculation and adjustment of dental local anesthesia doses.

Also known as: mepivacaine@ (2%@ 1:100000 epinephrine) dental anesthesia
Non addicted patientsTramadol Addicted Patients
