Chronic Orofacial pain

Chronic Orofacial pain:

Abstract

The issues specific to trigeminal pain include the complexity of the region, the problematic impact on daily function and significant psychological impact (Shueb SS et al., 2015). By nature of the geography of the pain (affecting the face, eyes, scalp, nose, mouth) it may interfere with just about every social function we take for granted and enjoy (Renton and Yilmaz, 2011). The trigeminal nerve is the largest sensory nerve in the body, protecting the essential organs that underpin our very existence (brain, eyes, nose, mouth). It is no wonder that pain within the trigeminal system in the face is often overwhelming and inescapable for the affected individual.
