Question: Some people say their trigeminal pain started soon after dental work. Can that cause TN?
Trigeminal Neuralgia AssociationAnswer: (Steven Graff-Radford, D.D.S. TN Alert, Fall 1995) Invasive dental procedures do not cause TN, but they often can be the triggering factor that will initiate TN pain in a patient who is already predisposed to it. Answer: (Steven Graff-Radford, D.D.S. TN Alert, Fall 1995) The reason it isn't constant is because the amount and location of demyelination (loss of the nerve's protection coatings) is only sufficient to sensitize the nerve cell bodies.

Related QuestionsQuestion: What's your view on the cause of TN?
Trigeminal Neuralgia AssociationWe believe TN results from hyper-excitability of the trigeminal nerve. After exceeding a certain threshold, the increased electrical impulses traveling through the trigeminal nerve activate pain regions in the brain. Trigeminal hyper-excitability is caused by injury to the myelin sheath that insulates the nerve fibers. When the myelin sheath is injured, electrical impulses are either activated, short circuited or reverberate, resulting in increased electrical traffic in the nerve.

Related QuestionsHow do disc injuries cause back pain?
Back Pain Frequently Asked Questions - Back Pain FAQ'sThe intervertebral disc is a gelatinous-like filled structure, which acts as a cushion to separate the vertebrae of the spine. The intervertebral disc has a tough outer cover called the annulus. Sometimes the integrity of the annulus is disrupted allowing for the change in the shape or contour of the disc. The disc material can protrude away from the normal contour of the disc and cause pain. Injury to the disc can cause pain in three different ways.
Related QuestionsChris Urban M.D.Disruption of the disc or inflammatory reaction from an injured disc may lead to back pain. Specific causes include disc herniation, degeneration, instability, or spinal stenosis. When an injured disc places pressure on a nearby nerve root, it may cause back or radiating leg pain due to a mechanical compression. In other situations, the abnormal disc may cause pain by releasing chemical byproducts, which stimulate pain receptors.Related Questions
