Pain after surgical extraction of third molars has been a nemesis for oral surgeons with clinicians, thus striving for an analgesic modality. NSAIDs are among the most widely used therapeutic classes of analgesics. Transbuccal diclofenac sodium patches have been developed as an innovative drug delivery system using buccal mucosa as a gifted choice, hence overcoming first pass metabolism and offering the advantage of sustained drug delivery with reduced incidence of systemic adverse effects.
