Abstract：
Regardless of whether it is acute or chronic, the assessment of pain should be simple and practical. Since the intensity of pain is thought to be one of the primary factors that determine its effect on a human\'s overall function and sense, there are many scales to assess pain. The aim of the current article was to review pain intensity scales that are commonly used in dental and oral and maxillofacial surgery (OMFS). Previous studies demonstrated that multidimensional scales, such as the McGill Pain Questionnaire, Short form of the McGill Pain Questionnaire, and Wisconsin Brief Pain Questionnaire were suitable for assessing chronic pain, while unidimensional scales, like the Visual Analogue Scales (VAS), Verbal descriptor scale, Verbal rating scale, Numerical rating Scale, Faces Pain Scale, Wong-Baker Faces Pain Rating Scale (WBS), and Full Cup Test, were used to evaluate acute pain. The WBS is widely used to assess pain in children and elderly because other scales are often difficult to understand, which could consequently lead to an overestimation of the pain intensity. In dental or OMFS research, the use of the VAS is more common because it is more reliable, valid, sensitive, and appropriate. However, some researchers use NRS to evaluate OMFS pain in adults because this scale is easier to use than VAS and yields relatively similar pain scores. This review only assessed pain scales used for post-operative OMFS or dental pain.
摘要：
不管是急性还是慢性,疼痛的评估应该简单实用。由于疼痛的强度被认为是决定其对人类整体功能和感觉的影响的主要因素之一，有许多量表来评估疼痛。本文的目的是回顾牙科和口腔颌面外科（OMFS）中常用的疼痛强度量表。以前的研究表明，多维尺度，比如麦吉尔疼痛问卷，麦吉尔疼痛问卷的简短形式，威斯康星州简短疼痛问卷适用于评估慢性疼痛，而一维尺度，如视觉模拟量表(VAS)，言语描述符量表，言语评定量表，数值评级量表,面对疼痛量表，Wong-Baker面部疼痛量表（WBS），和全杯测试，用于评估急性疼痛。WBS广泛用于评估儿童和老年人的疼痛，因为其他量表通常很难理解，这可能导致对疼痛强度的高估。在牙科或OMFS研究中，VAS的使用更普遍，因为它更可靠，有效,敏感,和适当的。然而,一些研究人员使用NRS评估成人OMFS疼痛,因为该量表比VAS更易于使用,且疼痛评分相对相似.本综述仅评估了用于术后OMFS或牙科疼痛的疼痛量表。
