AIM: To investigate the efficacy of medicinal plant bioactive secondary metabolites as inhibitors of voltage-gated sodium channels (Nav1.7, Nav1.8, and Nav1.9) in managing painful states of dental pulps. METHODOLOGY: Molecular docking, ADME prediction, toxicity profiling, and pharmacophore modelling were used to assess the binding affinities, pharmacokinetic properties, toxicological profiles, and active pharmacophores of the selected bioactive compounds. RESULTS: Three compounds (Sepaconitine, Lappaconitine and Ranaconitine) showed binding affinities (ΔG = -8.95 kcal/mol, -7.77 kcal/mol and -7.44 kcal/mol, respectively) with all three Nav1.7, Nav1.8 and Nav1.9 sodium channels. The sepaconitine amine group formed hydrophobic interactions with key residues. The Lappaconitine benzene ring contributed to hydrophobic interactions and hydrogen bond acceptor interactions. The hydrophobic interactions of the ranaconitine amine group play a critical role with specific residues on Nav1.8 and Nav1.9. CONCLUSION: The natural fusicoccane diterpenoid derivatives Sepaconitine, Lappaconitine, and Ranaconitine are potential lead compounds for the development of novel analgesics as selective antihyperalgesic drugs, which will provide a new dental pharmacological intervention for managing painful dental pulp conditions. Further experimental validation and clinical studies that confirm the efficacy and safety of these compounds will strengthen their applicability in dental practice.
