Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) defines acupuncture as the stimulation of specific points on or near the surface of the human body. Any technique of point stimulation can be used, with or without the insertion of needles, including the use of electrical, magnetic, light and sound energy, cupping and moxibustion (the burning on or over the skin of selected herbs), to normalize physiologic functions or to treat various conditions of the human body. This book offers to fill the gap between medicine and dentistry, presenting to the dental clinician both a sound and updated knowledge of the theoretical bases of the acupuncture, a discipline that today has gained full recognition. This book will provide the scientific evidence of efficacy and safety in many medical fields, and a comprehensive overview of clinical applications of acupuncture in the different dental areas and orofacial pain.
