摘要
A survey form completed by parents was used to investigate the incidence of postoperative pain and analgesic usage in children, following routine restorative dental procedures. Seventeen (31.5 percent) of the fifty-four patients undergoing such procedures reported pain. Overall, nine (16.7 percent) patients required analgesies for the relief of their pain, which represented 52.9 percent of those seventeen patients reporting pain. Although overall age was neither significantly associated with the report of postoperative pain nor with analgesic usage, female patients were significantly more likely to report pain than were male patients and 6- to 9-year-old females were more likely to require an analgesic than their male counterparts. However, when considering only those patients that reported pain, females were no more likely to require an analgesic.
