Oral-Facial Dyskinesia
📋Overview
Oral-facial dyskinesia refers to involuntary, repetitive movements of the mouth, face, and sometimes the jaw and tongue. It is a descriptive term rather than a standalone diagnosis and is often seen as a symptom in various neurological or medication-induced conditions. The modern preferred terms depend on the underlying cause, such as tardive dyskinesia when related to medication use or orofacial dyskinesia in idiopathic or neurodegenerative contexts.
