Orofacial Pain - Demystifying the Jigsaw.

      Аннотация: Orofacial pain in the field of dentistry pertains to the diagnosis and management of chronic, complex, facial pain and oromotor disorders. This specialty in dentistry has developed over a number of years out of the need for better understanding of a group of patients who somehow were not clearly suffering from dental pain disorders, but still did not seem to have a clearly defined medical problem. This book is an attempt to bring forth the different aspects of diagnosis and management of different orofacial pains, faced by dentist in day to day practice. It also unveils temporomandibular joint disorders, neuropathies and recent multidisciplinary pain management approaches for the optimal treatment of orofacial pain disorders including both non-pharmacological and pharmacological modalities.
