Forty-four cases of odontalgia are described which are considered to be a painful migraine-like disturbance of the blood vessels of the dental pulp and periodontal membrane. The condition appears to be a manifestation of depression and other personality disorders and responds well to antidepressant drug therapy (75 per cent of the patients). The recognition and proper management of this atypical ondontalgia is of crucial importance in preventing unnecessary surgery.
本文描述了44例牙痛病例，这些病例被认为是牙髓和牙周膜血管类似偏头痛的疼痛性紊乱。这种情况似乎是抑郁症和其他人格障碍的一种表现，对抗抑郁药物治疗反应良好（75%的患者）。识别和妥善处理这种非典型牙痛对于避免不必要的手术至关重要。
