Summary

In this study, this team of researchers will investigate the impact of chronic temporomandibular disorder suffering on the endogenous μ-opioid system in vivo, arguably one of the principal endogenous pain modulatory systems in the brain, and its modulation by 10 daily sessions of primary motor cortex stimulation using high-definition transcranial direct current stimulation (HD-tDCS).
