Trigeminal neuralgia: What helps stop the pain?

Pretty sure this is a dumb question, but did you try having that crown replaced? I had years of occipital neuralgia, and the only thing that helped the pain was ice, until I was given Depo Medrol injections, which cured it.

I'm interested for my friend who has TGN. His dentist just gave him a month guard which isn't really helping. Where were the DepoMedrol injections given and who gave them?

Hi @misu,
It was a new crown that was toooooooooooo big! Dentists etc... would not
remove it, even though you could see my teeth moved as a result. It took 4
years to find a dentist to work with me, it turned out to be a very
expensive nightmare, (I can explain later if you wish, teeth related to
tgn) that just did not go away. My Trigeminal Neuralgia decreased about 95%
after seeing the cranial sacral therapist. What a difference in my life. I
am still not fond of bright flashing lights, music with a heavy base,
cleaning detergent smells, and cheap perfume. I know it will not take me 3
agonizing weeks to recover from my TGN being triggered, and that alone is
priceless.
