Abstract
Atypical facial pain is a persistent pain in the face or intraoral region that does not fit into the diagnostic criteria associated with specific orofacial pain disorders. This article presents the results of a study, which showed that in most cases of presumed atypical facial pain, there is a specific physical diagnosis or multiple diagnoses that causes the persistent pain. These difficult to diagnose disorders are reviewed with discussion of future research that is needed in this area.Entities:
