The main objective of the present study is to evaluate the effect of techniques that activate the inhibitory system of pain modulation, in the case, transcutaneous electrostimulation (TENS) on the intensity of pain after anaesthetic blockade and during the procedures of coronary opening, access to the pulp chamber and pulp excision in patients with clinical diagnosis of irreversible pulpi…
The present study aims to evaluate possible changes in somatosensory mechanisms and pain modulation in the masticatory muscles of women with TMD and asymptomatic controls before and after application of a topical anesthetic and a placebo ointment. So, 40 volunteers between 18 and 50 years, presenting with complaints of facial pain in Orofacial Pain Clinic of the Bauru School of Dentistry …
Temporomandibular disorder (TMD) is one of the main causes of non-dental pain in the orofacial region and can be intensified in states of psycho-emotional discomfort. It is suggested that a TMD is associated with several psychosocial disorders, such as depression, anxiety, somatization, catastrophizing, as well as the risk of developing TMD is higher in impaired sleep quality. Thus, the a…
The main objectives of this study are to stablish intra and extraoral sensorial profile in subjects with clinical diagnostic of irreversible pulpitis and to compare these outcomes with health subjects. The sample will be constituted by 35 subjects with irreversible pulpitis (case group) and 35 health subjects paired for gender and age (control group). The main variables will be composed b…
Quantitative sensory testing (QST) is a recent option in the assessment of masticatory myofascial (MMF) pain. However, the role of superficial tissue sensitivity is not fully explored yet. The aim of this study is to evaluate the influence of cutaneous afferents in the mechanical somatosensory profile of subjects with MMF pain and healthy controls. This crossover placebo controlled clinic…
The precise relationship between pain and jaw motor function is still not totally clear and different and debatable models were proposed to explain such relationship. Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) uses electromagnetic induction to elicit neuronal responses and has been widely applied to assess the functional integrity of top-down pathways related to motor control. The primary ai…
