Lyme disease (borreliosis) is an infectious disease caused by the Borrelia spirochaetes,
usually transmitted to humans by the Ixodes ticks. It is manifested by a wide
spectrum of clinical symptoms varying according to the time elapsed from the infection.
The paper describes orofacial symptoms of the disease in a woman who has suffered from
a chronic borreliosis for 3 years. Multiorgan clinical manifestations of borreliosis might
occur in the masticatory organ and this fact should be taken into consideration in the differential
diagnosis of pain by medical and dental practitioners
