Abstract
A 65-year-old patient treated for pain of apparent odontogenic origin did not respond to appropriate dental treatment. While the signs and symptoms mimicked a dental problem, further diagnostic evaluation determined the "culprit"--cranial arteritis. Proper treatment immediately after diagnosis is advised as the complications of cranial arteritis can include the rapid onset of blindness.Entities:
