Effect of Facial Sensory Re-training on Sensory Thresholds [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Dental Research, 2007
Nearly 100% of patients experience trauma to the trigeminal nerve during orthognathic surgery, impairing sensation and sensory function on the face. In a recent randomized clinical trial, people who performed sensory re-training exercises reported less difficulty related to residual numbness and decreased lip sensitivity than those who performed ...
