Recent insights into brainstem mechanisms underlying craniofacial pain.
This article briefly highlights some of the recent advances in knowledge of the neural processes underlying pain in the face and mouth. It particularly focuses on those mechanisms operating in the brainstem that are involved in the transmission and modulation of nociceptive signals and that reveal a remarkable degree of plasticity following injury or inflammation of craniofacial tissues. Insigh...
متن کاملAutomated diagnosis of craniofacial pain.
The complexity of, and rapid advances in, modern dentistry preclude the possibility that the practicing dentist will be knowledgeable of the myriad of diagnostic techniques at his disposal. A large patient load and the demands of office administration force the dentist to use expeditious methods for deriving patient diagnoses. Unfortunately, under the pressure of time, test results may be misin...
متن کاملCraniofacial pain and anatomical abnormalities of the nasal cavities.
The causal relation between anatomical variations of the nose and headaches and facial pain is analyzed through literature review of the topic. The pathogenesis that can be involved in this relation proves to be wider than simple alteration of nasal septum and turbinates that can cause mechanical stimulus through contact between these structures, which covers infectious factors, neurogenic infl...
متن کاملFrequency of craniofacial pain in patients with ischemic heart disease
BACKGROUND Referred craniofacial pain of cardiac origin might be the only symptom of ischemic heart accidents. This study aimed to determine the frequency of craniofacial pain in patients with ischemic heart disease. MATERIAL AND METHODS This cross-sectional study was accomplished on 296 patients who met the criteria of having ischemic heart disease. Data regarding demographics, medical histo...
متن کاملTrigeminal branch stimulation for the treatment of intractable craniofacial pain.
OBJECT Trigeminal branch stimulation has been used in the treatment of craniofacial pain syndromes. The risks and benefits of such an approach have not been clearly delineated in large studies, however. The authors report their experience in treating craniofacial pain with trigeminal branch stimulation and share the lessons they have learned after 93 consecutive electrode placements. METHODS A ...
