“…Une classification selon l'origine de la pathologie a été établie : neuropathie périphérique des fibres orales de petit calibre (50-60 % des cas), neuropathie infra-clinique des fibres majeures trigéminales (20-25 % des cas) et déficit Tableau I. Causes locales et générales pouvant provoquer des stomatodynies [5,6,8,19]. • une augmentation des nocicepteurs TRPV1 et des récep-teurs P2X 3 a été également décrite au niveau des fibres nerveuses des muqueuses atteintes par un BMS.…”
