The new Multidisciplinary Clinic for the Management of Chronic Orofacial Pain is now active.

Established through a collaboration between the Department of Medical, Surgical and Health Sciences at UniTS and ASUGI (the local healthcare services), this innovative service aims to provide an integrated and highly specialised approach for patients suffering from this debilitating condition.

The clinic involves the Maxillofacial Surgery and Dentistry Department, led by Professor Roberto Di Lenarda, and the Psychiatry Department, led by Professor Umberto Albert.

Chronic orofacial pain presents a significant diagnostic and therapeutic challenge, particularly given the growing demand for effective and coordinated patient care. This type of pain severely impacts the quality of life and daily activities of those affected.

To effectively address this complexity, the new clinic relies on a multidisciplinary team of specialists, including dentists with expertise in oral medicine and psychiatrists, who work in synergy to provide patients with a personalised and comprehensive treatment pathway.

The service is available at the Maxillofacial Surgery and Dentistry Department (Ospedale Maggiore, Oral Medicine and Pathology Clinic, 1st floor, Staircase G, Room No. 6) and can be accessed by appointment through ASUGI’s official channels.
