Comparative Study[Evaluation and analysis of facial somatosensory changes of chronic masticatory muscle pain patients with quantitative sensory testing].
To evaluate and analysis facial somatosensory changes of patients with chronic masticatory muscle pain (MMP) quantitatively. ⋯ Chronic MMP patients were detected thermal hyperesthesia, thermal hyperalgesia, and mechanical hyperalgesia. Mechanical hypoesthesia was found at the pain sites of masticatory muscles. Chronic MMP might influence the central modulation of trigeminal nerve system.
