Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Assess the analgesic efficacy of Tramadol/dexketoprofen (TRAM/DKP) compared with Ibuprofen after the extraction of retained mandibular third molar. Patients will be divided into two groups based on a randomization table.
Group 1: it will be formed by thirty four patients. They will be given one tablet of Ibuprofen 400mg, 1 tablet every 8 hours during 48 h after extraction.
Group 2: it will be formed by thirty four patients. They will be given one tablet of Enanplus 75mg/25 mg (tramadol 75 mg/dexketoprofen 25 mg), 1 tablet every 8 hours during 48 h after extraction.

The extractions will be made by students of the Master of Oral Surgery and Implantology in the University of Granada.?Patients will be prescribed an antibiotic therapy consisting of amoxicillin 750 mg, 1 tablet every 8 hours for 6 days, for allergies to amoxicillin the antibiotic of choice will be clindamycin 300mg with the same regimen. Rescue medication consisted of 1g paracetamol if after 1 hour no effective analgesia was achieved with the given medication.

To ensure compliance with the study, patients are given a data collection sheet and an information paper. Patients will also be called by phone to ensure compliance with the study and in case of any doubt.

Outcomes
Primary outcome [1] 321707 0
Assess the analgesic efficacy of the combination of analgesics (tramadol hydrochloride 75mg / 25mg dexketoprofen), versus a single analgesic (ibuprofen 400mg), postoperative pain after third molar extraction of retained during the last 48 hours. Assessed using a Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) and Verbal Rating Scale (VRS)
Timepoint [1] 321707 0
At 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 36, and 48 hours after intervention
Secondary outcome [1] 375977 0
Difference of inflammation in the extraction area between groups, assessed using a Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) and a Verbal Rating Scale (VRS)
Timepoint [1] 375977 0
At 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 36, 48 hours and 7 days after intervention.
Secondary outcome [2] 375978 0
Assess the percentage of patients who required rescue analgesics and number of tablets consumed.
To evaluate the percentage of patients who require rescue medication, a section will be included in the data collection sheet by the patient in which the patient must indicate if they have taken rescue medication (yes / no) and if so, the number of tablets (1/2/3 ..).
Timepoint [2] 375978 0
During 48 hours post intervention
Secondary outcome [3] 375979 0
Adverse effects of the given medication and intensity of this effects.
On the day of the suture removal, the principal investigator will ask the patient about the presence of adverse effects related to the medication (1. nausea, 2. vomiting, 3. somnolence, 4. dizziness, 5. tremors, 6. dyspepsia, 7. diarrhea, 8. bleeding and / or 9. disorientation) and its intensity (1. mild / 2. moderate / 3. severe).

Efficacy
Statistical methods / analysis
The sample was determined with a confidence level of 95% and a power of 90%. A sample size was calculated to detect 2 points on the pain scale with a standard deviation of 2.5 based on previous studies, resulting in a sample size of 68 patients that will be divided into two groups using a randomization table. Statistical analysis will be carried out using the SPSS v 21.0 program (SPSS Inc., Chicago, IL). Analysis of qualitative variables will be carried out through frequency tables, contingency tables, along with bar graphs. Analysis of quantitative variables will be carried out through a statistical summary that includes coefficients of centralization and dispersion (arithmetic mean, median, standard deviation, minimum and maximum). The normality of variables will be verified by the Shapiro-Wilk test. The comparison between treatments for quantitative variables will be carried out using the Kruskall-Wallis or ANOVA test, and multiple comparisons between treatments using the Games-Howell test. In all the tests performed, the level of significance will be set at p = 0.05.

Summary
Brief summary
Clinical experience shows that, in the management of this type of pain of moderate-severe intensity, it is difficult to obtain effective analgesia with a single drug (monotherapy), and therefore combinations of analgesics are widely used to provide effective analgesia. (multimodal analgesia).
The main hypothesis from which we start is that patients who are given Enanplus 75mg / 25mg will have less pain intensity and will need less rescue medication than those taking ibuprofen and will not present any significant adverse effects
