Nerve Injury and Regeneration

Trigeminal Nerve Injuries

Abstract

Peripheral nerve injuries vary widely in extent and severity. In the peripheral trigeminal nerve, these injuries may result from extraction of teeth, placement of dental implants, benign and malignant tumor removal, maxillofacial trauma, endodontic procedures, orthognathic procedures, and even local anesthetic injections. Each form of insult results in various extent and type of nerve fiber injury with differing abilities for the nerve to regenerate spontaneously.
