Abstract
ABSTRACT It is a prospective study to evaluate the neurosensory deficits in patients that came to MGM Dental College and Hospital, Navi Mumbai from January 2010 to November 2011. One hundred seventy-seven patients were evaluated and they were divided into three subgroups: trauma, surgical extractions and pathology. The study was conducted to evaluate the sexwise, agewise, the description of the neurosensory deficit, the most susceptible area of neurosensory deficit as well as the agewise and sexwise recovery pattern of the neurosensory deficit. The statistical analysis showed that the neurosensory deficits were more common than females, the age group in which the deficits were more common was in between 25 and 50 years. The area most commonly affected was the chin and lower lip. The recovery patterns also showed that males and the age group of 25 to 50 years showed faster recovery.
