Abstract

Pain is a warning signal for the body defense mechanisms and is a critical sensation for supporting life. However, orofacial pain is not a vital sensation, but a disease. However, there are still many unclear points about the pathophysiological mechanism of orofacial pain. This situation makes it difficult for many clinicians to treat orofacial pain hypersensitivity.
