ABSTRACT The control of pain and inflammation that occur during endodontic treatment can be treated by means of local and pharmacological procedures such as analgesics or antibiotics when endodontic infection is present. Although NSAIDs are considered the drugs of first choice for the management of endodontic pain, there are other therapeutic variants of proven effectiveness. The aim of the present study is to describe alternatives for pain control during endodontic treatment by biopulpectomy. Acupuncture treatment for pain care in emergency stomatology services should be a resource of choice in acute pulp processes. Laser constitutes another alternative for pain treatment in dentistry, since it produces analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects, muscle relaxation, tissue regeneration and repair, reduction of edema and hyperemia, luminous hemostasis, stimulates natural defense mechanisms, as well as the formation of secondary dentin by odontoblasts by biostimulation process.
