The link between cutaneous allodynia and pain/sensitivity in teeth and gums during migraine episodes.

The findings of this study have important clinical implications. For migraine patients who are non-allodynic, the presence of pain and sensitivity in their teeth and gums during migraine attacks may indicate underlying dental diseases or the need for dental treatment especially root canal treatment. However, for allodynic patients, such symptoms may not necessarily indicate the presence of dental diseases or the need for dental treatment especially root canal treatment. These results underscore the significance of considering the presence of allodynia in the assessment and management of oral symptoms during migraine attacks.
