From: Evoked and spontaneous pain assessment during tooth pulp injury
Loss of mouse participation by stimulus intensity (the break point) before and after injury or sham. On the (A) Ipsilateral and (C) contralateral sides, there is a progressive decrease in the number of injured mice willing to tolerate filaments higher than 0.4 g, such that by day 6 none of them progressed further than 0.16 g (ipsilateral) or 0.4 g (contralateral). In contrast, on the (B) ipsilateral and (D) contralateral sides the sham cohort consistently tolerated testing with lower intensity filaments and at least two mice tolerated all the filaments across all testing days.
