Abstract
Objective: This article explores the multiple etiologies, diagnosis, and management of orofacial pain.
Latest developments: Published in 2019, the International Classification of Orofacial Pain has become the internationally accepted classification system for primary and secondary facial pain. New discoveries in temporomandibular disorders have demonstrated that they are far more complex than the traditional dental mechanistic point of view. A 2020 consensus report released by the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine entitled "Temporomandibular Disorders: Priorities for Research and Care" highlighted this paradigm shift and its importance for patient care, education, and research.
Essential points: Orofacial pain comprises many disorders with different etiologies and pathophysiologies. The subjectivity of the pain experience and the interrelated anatomy and physiology of the craniofacial area add to the complexity of diagnosis when the source and etiology of pain are not clear. As orofacial pain straddles the expertise of multiple disciplines, a multidisciplinary approach combining medication, physical therapy, and procedural and psychological strategies is essential in treating patients with orofacial pain.
