“…The great problem on this issue is that patients show dissatisfaction with pain management, especially when compared to patients in developed countries, where the prescription of opioid analgesics is higher.

Furthermore, the practice of self-medication with analgesics is frequent among individuals with chronic diseases, which can cause professionals to fear prescribing more potent analgesics.…”

“…Também segundo Costa et al (2013) de acordo com a legislação vigente, o cirurgiãodentista pode prescrever o medicamento que julgar mais adequado para curar, diminuir ou estabilizar a enfermidade diagnosticada, e não existe restrição dos medicamentos no cotidiano terapêutico do cirurgião-dentista, desde que tenha uso indicado e comprovado na Odontologia Avelar et al (2019) complementam que o cirurgião dentista pode trabalhar em casos de pacientes extremamente ansiosos em relação ao tratamento odontológico e/ou com um baixo nível cognitivo, que os leva a não cooperar para o sucesso da realização do tratamento, e o cirurgião dentista pode prescrever medicamentos psicotrópicos.…”
