Term
the difference between acute and chronic?
Definition
acute pain: quick onset, can tell where it's at

chronic: 3-6 months lasting pain or longer, dull, hard to find, and hard to heal
Term
Ther are 4 types of orofacial pain
Definition
Dentoalveolar pain: tooth, periodontal pulpal ,cracked tooth ,savlirary gland, oral mucosa, max sinus

Musculoskeletal: TMD

Neurovascular pain: primary headache, migraine, cluster headache, tension, temporal arteritis

Neuropathic pain:
episodic - trigeminal neuralgia, glossopharyngeal neuralgia
continuous - burning mouth pain
Term
What kind of pain is temporomandibular disorder (TMD)
Definition
musculoskeletal oropathic pain

msucles affected; temporalis, medial, lateral pterygoids, masseter

what is the cause: non-dental pain
OPPERA (orofacial pain prospective evaluation and risk assessment)
Term
what does the cohort studies say about the cause of TMD?
Definition
multifactorial/biopsychosocial causing TMD (multiple problem)

idiopathic causes:
1. stress
2. pain amplification (injury,BP, impaired0
3. oral parafx, self-report tmd noise, morbid condition (systemic healht), palpation sites and pain in amsseter.
Term
what are the 4 categories of causing TMJ?
Definition
a. TMD
- joint pain - arthralgia similar to athritis
- joint disorder (disc, hypermobility)
- joint disease (degenerative joint, athritides, idiopathic condylar)
- fractures
- congenital developmental disorder
b. masticatory muscle disorder> muscle pain
c. headache
d. associated structure> coronoid hyperplasia
Term
how do you inspect TMD?
Definition
inspect Muscle: myositis, myospasm, myalgia (local, or myofascial and referral?)

joint: itnernal dernage via disc displacement without reduction, arthralgia, stereoarthritis, degenerative joint disease, hypermobility disorder, hypomobility, adjesion, ankylosis, subluxation, dislocation
Term
Clinical symptoms of tmd:
Definition
facial pain in TMD
facial pain > muscles
mandibular movement limited
TMJ sounds> headache, ear pain, tinnitus
Term
what are some muscle pain of tmd?
Definition
myofascial pain: dull, aching pain, trusmus

Trigger? hypersensitive palpable nodular mass of tendon/ligament/tautband skeletal muscle

Referral pain (non-odontogenic toothache)
cheek lower jaw, ear, forehead, temporal)
Term
what are joint diseases that affect tmj?
Definition
Internal derangement includes:
a. disc displacement with reduction: click, deviation from opening pattern, soft tissue, no resection in ROM
> tx reduction of joint

b. Disc displacement without reduction (closed lock)
-hx sudden limited opening
- pain on opening
> deviation on one side of opening
> limited excursion on contralateral side
need MRI

c. Arthralgia from synovitis/capsulitis)
- localized TMJ pain from self report/exam)

d. Osteoarthritis/Degenerative joint disease:
- NKC< middle age, joint pain ,crepitus
dx: pano/ct > bird beak on joint is osteoarthritis/degenerative joint disease
Term
How do you exam TMJ?
Definition
palpaltion
TMJ evalualation: ROM > open, protrusive, excursive movements
joint sound/crepitus, joint palpation
image: pano/cbct, MRI
Term
How do you manage TMD?
Definition
conservative, reversible, evidence therapueitc modalities.

no specific therapies proven to be effective

consevative modalities: providng symptomatic relief only

least invasive as possible:
decrease pain, increase ROM, Increase quality of life

educate the patient, splint, drugs ,physical therapy, cognitive behavioral intervention

surgery as resort
Term
What are episodic neuropathic pain?
Definition
trigeminal neuralgia, glossopharyngeal neuralgia
Term
Trigeminal neuralgia/tic douloureux
Definition
vascular compression of trigeminal nerve due to
1. malformation of vascular
2. trauma/tumor/demyelinating

nerve affected: V2/V3
age: elderly
pain: paroxysmal pain/electric shock mancinating pain, that can cause toothache, then no pain (refractory period) then pain again
neuro examination: normal

Tx: carbamazepine/tegretol 100mg bid titrate for max 1200/day, monitor CBC and paltelet
if you're asian: screen ofr HLAB 1502 alelle before using carbamazepine/tegretol
sx: rhizotomy, glycerol rhizotomy, baloon compression, microvasuclar decompression
gamma knife surgery (sterotactic radiosurgery)
Term
Glossopharyngeal neuralgia:
Definition
stabbing/burning pain that happens on unilateral side of tongue

Trigger: swallowing, chewing, yawning, talking
pain: ear, base of tongue, tonsillar fossa, beneath angle of mandible
Term
Bell palsy (idiopathic facial paralysis)
Definition
acute weakness/paralysis of facial nerve with no known cause, but can be related to
1. herpes relations (HSV or varciella zoster)
2. cell mediated autoimmune rxn

age: young, very sudden onset
muscle control loss unilaterally (opposite side of nerve)
tx: self-limit, recovery resolves itself in 3-4 months...
steroid, antiviral therapy
Term
Ramsay hunt syndrome
Definition
shingle infection, affecting facial nerve
clinic: red rash fluid filled blisters around one ear. see facial wekaness, paralysis on same side as affected
ex: what dad got
tx :acyclovir, antivrial meds and corticosteroid
Term
Melkersson rosenthal syndrome
Definition
fissured tongue, upper lip swell, recurrent facial paralysis

NSAIDS/corticosteroids
Term
Frey syndrome/auriculotemporal syndrome
Definition
facial flush, sweat along auriculotemporal nerve, pain during chewing

complications of surgery:
> location: pre-auricular and temporal area

tx: botox injection, anticholinergic medication
Term
Giant cell arteritis (temporal arteritis)
Definition
immune mediated arteritis (attacks artery) causing superficial temporal artery (common site) inflammation
HLA-Dr4 genetic disposition

older 70 yars old female with headache, scalp tenderness, jaw claudication (cramping pain, masster, temporal increases with fx movements)

dx: erythrocyte sedimentation, C-reactive protein biopsy of temporal artery
tx: systemic steroid
Term
Continuous neuropathic pain - burning mouth syndrome
Definition
chronic burning pain in mouth from nosological entity: all pain (sting, burn, absence of specific oral lesions) without alteration in blood.
two methods of BMS
a. primary/idiopathic BMS
b. secondary BMS to
- dry mouth ,candidasis, allergies (denture amteiral )nutritional deficiecy like Fe, B6, b12, folic), oral habit, tongue thrust, brux, GERD, hormonal imbalance (menopausal), anxiety and depression ,cranial nerve injury

feamle often cause of menopausal age... however doesn't interfere with sleep
TOngue is the most common location for thi pain

PRimary idiopatic bms: alpha lipoic acid/clonazepam
