Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Pain is the most prevalent symptom of all and accounts for up to 80% of visits to health care facilities through the emergency department. From this perspective, the field of pain should be one of the greatest challenges for health care providers. Among the different types of pain, craniofacial pain and headaches have proven to be highly disabling and involve significant health care costs.

In recent decades, our approach to both pain assessment and treatment has undergone significant changes and advances. The development of new neurophysiological models that aim to explain how pain works and how it impacts an individual from a biopsychosocial point of view has been key to these advances.

Specifically, this Special Issue aims to bring together new research in the field of craniofacial pain and headaches. We welcome original articles and reviews focused on the molecular and cellular mechanisms of craniofacial pain and headaches.
