Study Summary

This study will compare the analgesic efficacy of a single-dose of a novel ibuprofen formulation to placebo and acetaminophen in the treatment of post-surgical dental pain following "wisdom" tooth (third molar) removal.

Primary Outcome

SPRID: time-weighted sum of pain relief rating combined with pain intensity difference (PRID) over 6 hours. Score range: -6(worst) to 42(best) for SPRID 0-6. PRID: sum of pain intensity difference (PID) and pain relief rating (PRR) at each time point. Score range for PRID: -1(worst) to 7(best). PID: baseline pain severity score minus pain severity score at a given time point (score range 0=none to 3=severe; baseline score range 2=moderate to 3=severe). Total score range for PID: -1 (worst) to 3
