FACIAL PAIN
 

This afternoon will be devoted to all types of facial pain.  This will include not only dental causes, which will hopefully be well known to everybody present, but also some of the more bizarre causes of facial pain which crop up, particularly in hospital clinics.

The lecture will inevitably have more script than pictures although every attempt will be made to add interest to what can be an extremely dry topic!
