Oral cenesthopathy is a somatic delusion or hallucination involving the oral area and categorized as delusional disorder, type. The pathophysiology of this intractable condition remains obscure. In study, we clarified by evaluating regional brain perfusion. We performed single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) using (99m)Tc-ethylcysteinate dimer in 16 subjects (cenesthopathy:control = 8:8). SPECT images were visually assessed qualitatively, quantitative analyses also...
Atypical odontalgia (AO) is a disease characterized by continuous pain affecting the teeth or tooth sockets after extraction in absence of any identifiable cause on clinical radiographic examination. Antidepressants, such as amitriptyline, are reported to be effective treatment AO; however, their efficacy varies depending case. In this article, we report three types AO and discuss its heterogeneity management. first case, 58-year-old woman presented with heavy, splitting four maxillary front...

Many studies shown brain volume decreases along progression dementia. Although previous reported a relationship between tooth loss or periodontitis and onset dementia, pathological mechanisms underlying this association not been elucidated. In study, we aimed to examine oral condition atrophy discuss how adequately deal This...
The relationship between oral and cognitive functions among older people is highly debated.To examine whether are related to changes in the levels of mild impairment (MCI) biomarkers Japanese outpatients.This observational study included 52 outpatients aged ≥65 years who underwent dental examinations at Fukuoka Dental College Hospital.
