Abstract
The results show that oral surgery can lead to sensory deficits in the mental and lingual region, even if the patients do not notice any sensory disturbances. The applied QST battery is a useful tool to investigate trigeminal nerve function in the early postoperative period. In light of the increasing forensic implication, this tool can serve to objectify clinical findings.
