A pulpite irreversível é um processo inflamatório avançado da polpa dental em que o tecido, embora vital, perde sua capacidade de regeneração. O processo anestésico deve ser realizado previamente ao tratamento endodôntico, mas em função da inflamação tecidual, encontra dificuldades para sua efetividade. Nesse contexto, a analgesia preemptiva tem sido indicada como estratégia para potencializar o efeito anestésico por meio da administração prévia de anti-inflamatórios. Este estudo analisou e comparou os resultados obtidos no com o uso de fármacos anti-inflamatórios prévios à anestesia em dentes com pulpite. A pesquisa baseou-se em artigos nacionais e internacionais publicados entre 2015 e 2025, indexados nas bases PubMed, Web of Science e Scopus. Os achados demonstram que o uso prévio de anti-inflamatórios melhora a eficácia anestésica e reduz a dor durante o tratamento, evidenciando a analgesia preemptiva como uma alternativa plausível em casos de pulpite irreversível.
