神经性疼痛的口面部区域构成了一个困难的挑战，治疗医生。在某些情况下，诊断远非易事。口面神经性疼痛的常见原因在这里进行了审查，重点放在2个最常见的：带状疱疹后神经痛和创伤后疼痛性周围神经病变。此外，讨论还包括特发性三叉神经痛（抽动性杜洛勒氏症），这是一种神经性疼痛综合征，几乎是三叉神经分布所特有的（非常罕见，在舌咽区也有报道）。主要的研究问题和成功的简要总结也提供。
Neuropathic pain in the orofacial region poses a difficult challenge to the treating physician. In some cases diagnosis is far from easy. Common causes of orofacial neuropathic pain are reviewed here, with a focus on the 2 most common: postherpetic neuralgia and posttraumatic painful peripheral neuropathy. In addition, the discussion includes idiopathic trigeminal neuralgia (tic douloureux), a neuropathic pain syndrome that is nearly unique to the trigeminal distribution (very rarely, it has also been reported in the glossopharyngeal region). Brief summaries of major research problems and successes are also provided.
