    AbstractAs previously stated in this paper, the therapeutic goal in the management of patients with chronic pain conditions in the face, head and neck is management and rehabilitation, striving for a 50 percent decrease in pain, a 50 percent increase in function and mobility, and a 50 percent decrease in medication with the elimination of agents with an addicting potential. These results will best be obtained through proper diagnosis and utilization of the aforementioned techniques in an interdisciplinary fashion as has been described.
