Abstract
Although the above disorders are not common, the dentist's ability to diagnose and differentiate them from other facial pains is essential. Many patients suffering from these afflictions have been seen by numerous dentists and physicians before appropriate diagnosis and treatment is provided; therefore, it is essential for dentists to be aware of these conditions and immediately refer the patient to a neurologist for further treatment if necessary.
