Orofacial pain refers to a group of complex pain conditions affecting the mouth, jaw, face, and related head and neck structures that are not due to routine dental disease. These conditions may arise from musculoskeletal, joint, or neurologic sources and often present with overlapping symptoms, making accurate diagnosis essential to appropriate, conservative management.
