“…This may be interpreted as most patients having a worse perception of their oral health-related quality of life in accordance with the duration of their painful pathology. This large difference reveals that, as suggested by several authors ( 23 , 24 ), the chronification of pain has an important effect on the deterioration of the patient’s quality of life.…”

“…This characteristic, having a higher grade of depression, is precisely the one with the greatest influence in our analysis when it comes to accounting for the variation in the OHIP-14 scores. In other words, the psychosocial aspects, as pointed out by other studies ( 19 , 24 , 28 ), are inevitably essential to analyze orofacial pain, as pain, far from being a strictly biological element, has a psychological and social component, as revealed by many studies both in the field of medical research and in the field of social research ( 29 , 30 ). This is extremely important, as the patients’ biological, psychological, and social characteristics are elements that cannot be dissociated when it comes to explaining any phenomenon which, like pain, has a complex nature, and whose social side has previously been documented by the authors ( 31 ).…”

BackgroundTo analyze the association between the OHIP-14 and the different subtypes making up the clinical and psychological axis obtained using the RDC/TMD.Material and Methods407 patients treated at the TMD unit of the Andalusian Healthcare Service were administered the Spanish version of the Research Diagnostic Criteria for Temporomandibular Disorders questionnaire (RDC/TMD), together with the Oral Health Impact Profile questionnaire (OHIP-14). The degree of association between the patients’ score in the OHIP-14 and the clinical and biopsychosocial variables was analyzed through bivariate and multivariate analyses, specifically through linear regression.Results89.4% of the treated patients were women, while 10.6% were men, with an average age of 42.08 ± 14.9 years. The mean score and standard deviation for the OHIP-14 was 20.57 ± 10.73. A significant association (p<0.05) was observed with the following variables: Axis I, jaw disability checklist, depression, somatization, perceived pain duration, and pain interference with activities of daily living.ConclusionsThe analysis of the relation between self-perceived health in patients with TMD, as measured by the OHIP-14, showed a R2 of 0.3979, with a higher Beta value for the association between the OHIP and patients with both myofascial pain and arthopathy, jaw disability, depression, a higher pain duration and a higher pain interference with activities of daily living. Key words:Temporomandibular disorders, psychological factors, oral health impact profile, public healthcare, research diagnostic criteria for temporomandibular disorders (RDC/TMD).

Pain is one of the most common symptoms encountered in clinical practice and the head is a frequent site of pain. Chronic Orofacial Pain (COP) represents a complex pain condition with an etiology comprised of many factors including those falling within biological, psychological, and social domains. Psychogenic regional pain is a term used for “pain that patients feel in a region of the body where no peripheral cause can be found and is psychogenic in its evocation”. Even in the field of psychology/psychiatry, many aetiologies and psychodynamics have been related to the development of psychogenic pain. This article deals with the treatment modalities to deal with the psychological repercussions of physical, orofacial pain.

The psychological aspects of chronic pain conditions represent a key component of the pain experience, and orofacial pain conditions are not an exception. In this review, we highlight how psychological factors affect some common oral mucosal and orofacial pain conditions (namely, oral lichen planus, recurrent aphthous stomatitis, burning mouth syndrome, and temporomandibular disorders) with emphasis on the significance of supplementing classical biomedical treatment modalities with appropriate psychological counseling to improve treatment outcomes in targeted patients. A literature search restricted to reports with highest relevance to the selected mucosal and orofacial pain conditions was carried out to retrieve data.
