| Primary | Comparative Evaluation of Acetaminophen and Acupressure for Pain Management in Orthodontic Treatment | From archwire insertion to 5 days post-bonding | This study aims to compare the effectiveness of two pain management methods-acetaminophen (500mg) and acupressure-following the insertion of an archwire in orthodontic patients. Pain perception will be measured using a Visual Analog Scale (VAS), where patients rate their pain on a scale from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst possible pain). The study will assess pain relief over the first five days post-treatment, with pain levels recorded twice daily on days 2 to 5, and once on day 1. Patients will either take acetaminophen or perform acupressure on specific points of the body (St 6 and St 36) to relieve discomfort. The goal is to determine which method provides more effective pain relief during the early stages of orthodontic treatment. |
