[b]DENTAL NEUROIMAGING[/b] [b]Provides the latest neuroimaging-based evidence on the brain mechanisms of oral functions[/b] [i]Dental Neuroimaging: The Role of the Brain in Oral Functions[/i] provides an up-to-date overview of neuroimaging research on the neural mechanisms underlying mastication, swallowing, sensory processing, and other oral topics. Divided into three parts, the book first introduces the theoretical framework of the brain-stomatognathic axis, clinical assessments for oral function, and neuroimaging methods. The second part presents recent neuroimaging findings of oral sensory and motor functions such as somatosensation, gustation, and orofacial pain and …
