1 Sometimes, the larger molars cause more discomfort due to their larger surface area that can't slice through the gum tissue as an erupting incisor is capable of doing.  Most children have a complete set of 20 deciduous teeth (known as baby teeth or milk teeth) by 30 months of age.
Nociceptive, or somatic, pain is the common discomfort we have all experienced as a result of injury -- a paper cut, a broken bone, or appendicitis, among other things. Somatic pain makes sense to us; we can understand the patient's pain.
1. NOCICEPTIVE PAIN-Examples include sprains, bone fractures, burns, bumps, bruises, inflammation (from an infection or arthritic disorder), obstructions, and myofascial pain (which may indicate abnormal muscle stresses).hen activated, they transmit pain signals (via the peripheral nerves as well as the spinal cord) to the brain. The pain is typically well localized, constant, and often with an aching or throbbing quality. Visceral pain is the subtype of nociceptive pain that involves the internal organs.
