Impact of NSAID etoricoxib on side effects of orthodontic tooth movement

---

Objectives:
The non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug etoricoxib is the most highly selective inhibitor of cyclooxygenase-2 available (344:1) and has been approved for postoperative pain therapy following dental interventions in Europe. At clinically relevant doses it has been reported to only have marginal effects on the velocity of orthodontic tooth movement (OTM). Its effects on associated dental root resorptions, osteoclastogenesis, trabecular number in the alveolar bone and periodontal bone loss during OTM, however, have not yet been investigated.
