Orofacial Pain: A new US Dental Specialty. Where are we now?
Orofacial Pain has become a new Dental Specialty in the US. The origin and responsibility of this subject lies in the realm of Dentistry and thus much of the research work has originated from this discipline, with inherent limitations. Current efforts around the world are endeavoring to rectify this situation by using scientific methodology and interdisciplinary collaboration to focus on the various clinical conditions seen in this anatomic region. It is important to establish a broader evidence base for this subspecialty and to define its direction for the future.
