Among the numerous causes of facial neuralgias, the painful dysfunction syndrome of the manducatory apparatus corresponds to a frequent etiology whose thorough study carried out by a multidisciplinary team over about 500 cases allowed their splitting into several evolutive clinical forms. At present, a number of these forms which are particularly painful, require a disk surgery (dislocation reduction, perforation suture, etc.) and if necessary an articular facet surgery (modelling condylectomy, surfacing, etc.). This study specifies the indications and prognosis for these surgical operations.

Temporomandibular disorders are a group of craniomaxillofacial disorders mainly characterized by pain and motor dysfunction of the temporomandibular joints and surrounding masticatory muscles. Clinically, patients with temporomandibular disorders often display central nervous system dysfunction, such as negative mood disorders, but the underlying cause remains unclear. Recent developments in neuroimaging techniques have facilitated new understanding.
