  • Title: Pharmacotherapy for chronic facial pain.
    Author: Phero JC.
    Journal: Dent Clin North Am; 1984 Jul; 28(3):471-91. PubMed ID: 6146541.
    Abstract:
    The clinical usefulness of a drug therapy program for the management of chronic head and neck pain requires an understanding of the conditions in which the program will be used. The practitioner should remember that drug therapy is not the keystone of chronic pain management, but only a useful adjunct that should be eliminated or reduced as soon as feasible. The other various modalities for chronic pain management, which include physical therapy, relaxation therapy, transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation, injection therapy, and occlusal reconstruction should be utilized to their fullest extent if the patient is to achieve success.
