The present paper describes the effect of vibratory stimulation on pain of dental origin in 36 patients. The patients were from a clinic for dental surgery and all had suffered pain from pulpal inflammation, apical periodontitis or postoperative pain following extraction of an impacted wisdom tooth for more than 2 days. Vibration at 100 Hz was applied to various points in the facial region or the skull. All the patients except three experienced an effective reduction of the intensity of the pain. In the patients who experienced pain reduction there was usually a best point at which vibration had a greater pain alleviating effect than at other points. At some points the stimulation added to the pain. In 16 patients the stimulation caused a reduction in pain intensity of 75--100%; out of these 12 patients reported a complete relief of pain.
本文描述了振动刺激对36例牙科源性疼痛患者的影响。这些患者来自一家牙科诊所，均患有牙髓炎症、根尖周炎或拔除阻生智齿术后疼痛超过2天。以100赫兹的频率在面部区域或颅骨的不同部位施加振动。除3名患者外，所有患者的疼痛强度均有效降低。在疼痛减轻的患者中，通常存在一个最佳点，在该点振动比其他点具有更大的疼痛缓解效果。在某些点上，刺激反而会加重疼痛。16例患者的疼痛强度降低了75%至100%；其中12例患者报告疼痛完全缓解。
