Q

treatment for primary BMS

A

top or systemic - TCA, anxiolytics, anticonvulsant

25
Q

what is phantom tooth pain?

A

pain following extraction or RCT >/=3 months - injury to primary afferent

26
Q

do analgesics relieve neuropathic pain?

A

no

27
Q

how to tell difference between peripheral + central neuropathic pain

A

peripheral lockable by LA

central isn’t

28
Q

symptoms of TMD

A
pain
tenderness to palpation
jaw movement limited/deviated//uncoordinated
joint sounds 
evidence of parafunction
headaches
29
Q

how does COMT affect TMD

A

low COMT - increased pain sensitivity - increased TMD

30
Q

diagnostic system used for TMD

A

DC TMD 2014

31
Q

what is myogenous + arthrogenous pain

A
myogenous = from muscle
arthrogenous = from joint or disc
32
Q

4 type of TMD

A
  1. myalgia
  2. head attributed to TMD
  3. arthralgia
  4. intra-articular disorders
33
Q

how to examine myalgia

A

familiar pain - palpate masseter + temporalis

34
Q

types of myalgai

A

local myalgia
myofascial pain
myofascial pain with referral

35
Q

what happens in disc displacement with reduction

A

snap/pop cause by disc moving forwards infront of condyle

36
Q

what is the parotid gland relationship with master + buccinator

A

parotid duct pirerces buccinator

overlies masseter

37

long buccal sensory
41
Q

components of posterior branch of V3

A

mainly sensory - general sensation ant 2/3 + mandibular teeth (IAN)

nerve to mylohyoid motor

42
Q

what is the chorda tympani nerve?
