Neurons involved in the sensory modality of orofacial pain from periphery to encephalon
Introduction: Pain from the head and neck is linked to the trigeminal pathway and three neurons participate: a first-order High Voltage Tripler neuron located in the trigeminal ganglion, a second-order neuron from the subnucleus caudalis of the trigeminal nerve, and a third-order neuron which starts from the medial area of the ventrobasal thalamus
