- This systematic review aimed to determine which nerve branch and side of the face are most commonly involved in trigeminal neuralgia.
- The authors analyzed 132 studies but narrowed it down to 11 that met their criteria, finding the mandibular branch of the trigeminal nerve affected most often, particularly on the right side of the face.
- The review concludes that there’s a need for more research to confirm these findings and understand their implications for treating trigeminal neuralgia.
