Abstract(s)
O uso dos corticosteroides, na redução do edema, dor e trismo, associados às cirurgias de terceiros molares tem sido investigado nas últimas décadas. Este estudo revê os trabalhos publicados na última década, que relataram os efeitos da dexametasona e/ou metilprednisolona, no controlo dessas sequelas pós-operatórias. Foram incluídos 29 artigos, destes, 19 avaliaram a dexametasona, 8 a metilprednisolona e 2 compararam a eficácia destes dois fármacos. Da sua análise conclui-se que os corticosteroides são úteis na redução dos sintomas pós-operatórios, com redução significativa do edema e trismo, embora o seu papel no controlo da dor não esteja bem estabelecido. São usadas doses, vias de administração e posologias diferentes, tendo a administração única pré-operativa sido considerada mais eficaz e a administração submucosa uma via alternativa de eficácia comparável às outras vias e com vantagens como a fácil execução, não necessitando de habilidade extra, e de não depender da adesão do paciente.

Different doses, routes of administration and dosages are used, with the single preoperative administration being considered more effective and submucosal administration an alternative route of efficacy comparable to other routes and with advantages such as easy execution, requiring no extra skill, and not depend on patient compliance.
