Treatment1

• This pain is often similar to pain from organic dental disease such as periapical periodontitis, or pulpitis (toothache), but unlike normal dental pain, it is not relieved in the long term by dental treatments such as endodontic therapy (root canal treatment) or tooth extraction, and it may even be worsened, return soon after, or simply migrate to other areas in the mouth following dental treatment.

Response2

• The main features of AFP are: no objective signs, negative results with all investigations/ tests, no obvious explanation for the cause of the pain, and a poor response to attempted treatments. (wikipedia.org)
• Over time the pain may migrate, spontaneously or as a response to interventions, to other sites, or slowly expand. (wikipedia.org)

Involves1

• Generally, the term AO may be used where the pain is confined to the teeth or gums, and AFP when the pain involves other parts of the face. (wikipedia.org)
