Abstract
: During orthodontic treatment, pain and discomfort are frequently felt by patients during procedures like separator placement, archwire placement, orthodontic force application, miniscrew placement and debonding. The purpose of this study is to look into the effects of biting on Chewie for pain management during debonding procedure. Out of sample size of 128 sites, 64 sites (right or left) was assigned as Chewie and 64 sites as control group and debonding was carried out. Pain was evaluated on VAS scale from 1 to 10. Chewie group has a mean value of 1.76, with a 95% confidence interval ranging from 1.59 (Lower) to 1.93 (Upper). Conventional group has a mean value of 2.00, with a 95% confidence interval ranging from 1.79 (Lower) to 2.20 (Upper). : Debonding performed with gently squeezing action and biting on the chewie will be sufficient to keep pain to a minimum level and no other additional pain-relief method will be required.
