Research Abstract |
It is said that Quantitative Sensory Test is useful as inspection of neuropathic sharp pain in a peripheral and the center and the neurologic disease. Although there is it, the report of QST which assumed the skin surface a measurement position has few reports of the oral mucosa. I examined the warm and cool perception threshold that assumed oral mucosa a measurement position in this study. The warm and cool perception threshold that the result assumed oral mucosa a measurement position had enough plasticities, and, in QST for palate, a tongue and gingivae, it was suggested that clinical application was possibility.
