Abstract

<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>Acute orofacial pain in the head and neck region is a common complaint; however it can be a diagnostic challenge due to the anatomical complexities in this region, sometimes making the origin of pain difficult to source. Accurate diagnosis relies on a systematic evaluation of the patient's pain history, medical factors and clinical signs and symptoms. An assessment of the patient's cervical musculoskeletal system is often overlooked but can provide important diagnostic information.</jats:p>
