The main objective of the present study was to demonstrate that a preoperative intramuscular apply of diclofenac has a superior effectiveness to the preoperative intramuscular apply of ketorolac to prevent the later pain to retained third molar surgery. 40 patients candidates to receive surgical removal of retained lower third molar willingly incorporated to the study had participated, assigned in 2 groups (diclofenac and ketorolac) of 20 members each one. The diclofenac group received diclofenac 75 mg and the ketorolac group received ketorolac 60 mg, in both cases for intramuscular route 30 minutes before beginning the surgery.The evaluation of postoperative pain was carried out on 4 variables: intensity of the pain according to visual analogue scale (VAS) during 24 hours after to the surgery, time for rescue analgesia, total analgesic consumption and global evaluation of the surgery. The diclofenac group patients experienced significantly smaller pain intensity during 24 hours after the surgery in comparison to those of the ketorolac group (19.00 mm vs. 20.24 mm, p p < 0.05). The diclofenac group patients presented a time for rescue analgesia significantly greater (9.15 h vs. 8.52 h, p p < 0.05) and a smaller analgesic consumption (2.90 tabs vs. 3.25 tabs, p > 0.05) in comparison to those of the ketorolac group. A greater percentage of diclofenac group patients in comparison to those of the ketorolac group (75% vs. 35%) had qualified the surgery like excellent. The preoperative intramuscular apply of diclofenac has a superior effectiveness to the preoperative intramuscular apply of ketorolac to prevent the later pain to retained third molar surgery.
