Brief summary

The primary aim of this study is to investigate if AZD1940 can relieve the pain induced by the surgical removal of one lower wisdom-tooth. This will be done by comparing the effect of AZD1940 to placebo (inactive substance) on pain. A number of patients will instead receive the common painkiller naproxen for comparison purposes. Rescue medication, acetaminophen, will be allowed if a need for additional painkillers would arise. A number of patients will receive Naproxen as control.

Maximum Deterioration in VAMS HighBetween dosing and 12h post-doseSubjective qualities of mood in the subject are measured by letting the subject rate their subjective experiences of a number of adjectives using a series of visual analogue scales. Subjects are required to rate on 100-mm lines the extent to which they felt each adjective at a given time point from 'not at all' on the left end of the scale to 'extremely' on the right end of the scale.

Population: Only patients reporting a deterioration are included.The analyses are based on a per-protocol population.

Time to Max Deterioration in VAMS Sedated

Subjective qualities of mood in the subject are measured by letting the subject rate their subjective experiences of a number of adjectives using a series of visual analogue scales. Subjects are required to rate on 100-mm lines the extent to which they felt each adjective at a given time point from 'not at all' on the left end of the scale to 'extremely' on the right end of the scale.
