Resumo
JUSTIFICATIVA E OBJETIVOS: Desde a descoberta relativamente recente do sistema endocanabinoide (SEC) e seu papel fundamental da regulação de outros sistemas, o assunto tem despertado interesse de todas as áreas da saúde, incluindo-se a Odontologia. Dentre as possíveis utilizações e benefícios dos canabinoides, está sua atuação na dor e seus fatores predisponentes ou perpetuadores, como o bruxismo e os distúrbios do sono. Embora a literatura seja ainda escassa, os mecanismos de ação e resultados satisfatórios dos canabinoides e demais derivados da cannabis nessas situações já permitem sua prescrição com segurança. O objetivo deste estudo foi verificar as atuais evidências sobre a utilização de derivados da cannabis nas dores orofaciais (DOFs), revisando o que se sabe, até o momento, sobre o SEC e as perspectivas de sua utilização com respaldo e critério.
CONTEÚDO: Esta pesquisa realizou uma breve revisão da história da planta cannabis, abordando temas como preconceito, proibições e interesses, além de sua utilização terapêutica. Em seguida, foi apresentada uma revisão sobre o SEC e seus mecanismos de interesse na DOF. Na sequência, foram discutidos os produtos derivados da planta e seus efeitos, indicações, contraindicações, efeitos adversos, interações farmacológicas, peculiaridades e perspectivas.
CONCLUSÃO: Quanto mais são adquiridos conhecimentos sobre o SEC e os benefícios terapêuticos dos componentes e derivados da cannabis, mais há um convencimento de que surgiu, de fato, uma nova fronteira terapêutica. O número crescente de bons desfechos, incluindo casos de DOF, obtidos através de estudos bem conduzidos, traz um misto de satisfação e empolgação. Nenhuma terapia obterá bons resultados se não partir de um diagnóstico preciso. Assim, é de suma importância que se conheça o SEC, os produtos e derivados da planta, os canabinoides sintéticos, suas indicações e efeitos. Novos estudos são necessários e, nesse momento, pode-se afirmar que as perspectivas são muito boas e um novo e desafiador horizonte está despontando.
