Cutaneous sensory thresholds from skin overlying both masseters and right ventral forearm were measured in a group of 12 MPD patients and an appropriately matched group of non-patients. No significant differences were found between the two groups, nor were there significant differences between symptomatic and contralateral asymptomatic sites in the patients. There does not appear to be evidence for differences in sensory characteristics in the cutaneous afferent pathway of MPD patients.
