| Popis: |
Pain is detected by nociceptors, which are unmyelinated nerve endings. Inflammatory processes result in the release of chemical mediators that are released at different levels in the pain pathways. This chapter discusses the pain pathways as well as the several nociceptive mediators that play a role in the inflammatory states in the mouth. The innervation of the orofacial region is also discussed. |
