Abstract:
Facial pain can represent an expression of an initial symptom of a severe primary neurological disease. Some examples are presented. In the second part chronic pain like facial pain, stomatodynia, odontalgia and temporomandibular disorders are illustrated and grouped together under the name idiopathic facial or orofacial pain. The similar clinical aspects of these facial pains are presented. The concept of nonnociceptive pain and other mecanisms to explain these chronic painful disorders are briefly discussed. Drug treatment like antidepressant and cognitive behavioural therapies are counselling as effective therapies of these chronic pains.
