Abstract
Temporomandibular disorders (TMD) represent a group of chronic painful conditions involving the muscles of mastication and the temporomandibular joint. Several studies have reported that TMD is associated with enhanced sensitivity to experimental pain. Twenty-three TMD subjects and 24 pain-fKeywords
