“…It is here where headaches can have a significant socio-economic impact. The interference with family and social life caused by the pathology is undoubtedly a real problem which is acutely felt by patients and which contributes significantly to worsening their quality of life [18] . Furthermore, patients often experience stigma during their work activities (and before that, education) due to a lack of understanding on the part of colleagues and employers who commonly tend to trivialise the problem or have a distorted interpretation of the severe physical and cognitive limitations which can result from headaches [19] .…”

Headaches are not a symptom but a neurological disorder which mainly affects females and is the human race’s third most frequent and second most disabling illness, according to the World Health Organisation (WHO). Headaches are the epitome of chronic pain in females during their peak years of life. Those who are prone to this disorder suffer not only physically during an acute headache attack with its resulting incapacitating effects but also because of the anguish associated with the onset of new attacks. Its lack of 'social' recognition as a genuine, severe and incapacitating pathology is a further aggravation for those who experience this condition.

“…However, the result is that the fully-armed goddess of war Athena appears out of the god's head with a mighty cry. Hippocrates accurately describes a migraine with a regressed aura after vomiting [9] . However, it was not until the first century A.D. that Areteus of Cappadocia explicitly defined the characteristic pattern of unilateral pain, nausea and vomiting that characterises migraines, which he called heterocrania [10] .…”

Headaches are widespread recurrent or chronic pain disorders. Every aspect of daily life, from work performance to social and family relationships, can be severely affected and many individuals feel this problem is even more unbearable than the pain itself. The prehistoric era showed the first indications of a headache deemed so unbearable that a hole had to be drilled in the head. Indeed, cranial drilling is the oldest surgical operation, as attested by palaeopathological evidence. In the Neolithic period (7,500 - 5,300 BC) drilling was practised widely; the oldest drilled skull in Europe was found in Ensisheim, Alsace and in the Neolithic necropolis of Loisy-en-Brie (France), a drilled skull with a bone flap to close the hole was discovered. Examples of drilling can also be found in Italy, such as the Catignano skull dating back to the fifth millennium. These finds indicate how headaches have afflicted humankind since the earliest times: the notion that stress is typical of the contemporary world must be revised, while the idea that 'sickness of living' has affected humankind throughout its long history must be accepted. In the 4th century B.C. Hippocrates described a migraine with aura, while in the 1st century A.D. Areteus of Cappadocia codified a syndrome he called heterocrania, the symptoms of which were unilateral pain, nausea and vomiting. The term hemicrania was later coined by Galen, who attributed the disease to yellow bile, one of the four humours hypothesised by Hippocrates as responsible for the disease. Today’s clinical instruments can accurately measure disability parameters, whose significant reduction is increasingly the focus of drug trial end-points.

“…The previous can lead to partial or complete edentulism with a significant impact on masticatory function, aesthetics and the need of complex rehabilitation (Cairo et al, 2018). A recent population-based survey done by SIdP showed that in spite of the prevalence of periodontitis in Italy is estimated to be as high as 50% (Aimetti et al, 2015) only 17% of the respondents reported to have received a diagnosis of periodontitis (Raspini et al, 2021), underlying the need to increase diagnostic accuracy and patient awareness about this disease.…”

ObjectivesAnti‐resorptive agents have been linked to the development of MRONJ in patients undergoing dental surgical procedures. This survey aims to explore the level of knowledge and experience of Italian Society of Periodontology and Implantology members in the management of patients treated with anti‐resorptive agents and with the risk of developing MRONJ.Materials and MethodsAn 18‐item questionnaire was submitted by e‐mail to the SIdP members. Statistical analyses were carried out. Continuous variables were described as mean ± standard deviation (SD) or median, and first and third quartile according to distribution's normality. Normality of data was checked with Shapiro–Wilk test.ResultsFour hundred and fifty‐one questionnaires were returned by e‐mail (32%). Most of the respondents were private practitioners (81.8%). Only 47.7% declared to be highly confident in managing patients on anti‐resorptive therapy while 92.5% reported to have performed tooth extractions and 52.3% implant surgery in patients under anti‐resorptive therapy for osteometabolic disorders. One or more MRONJ‐affected patients were encountered by 63.2% of the respondents.ConclusionsThis survey highlights the need to develop a “dedicated” program both for dentists and prescribers to improve the level of cooperation and to increase the level of awareness of patients treated with anti‐resorptive agents.
