Title: Neuritic toothache. Author: DuPont JS. Journal: Gen Dent; 2001; 49(2):178-81. PubMed ID: 12004698. Abstract: Diagnosing and managing neuropathic pain with associated sensory aberrations can be aggravating and frustrating for both the dentist and the patient. The teeth and intraoral and extraoral tissues can be affected if neuritis is located in the maxillary or mandibular nerve branches. Dentists should be aware of a neuritic etiology for tooth pain because an incorrect diagnosis can lead to ineffective and unnecessary dental work.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
