Many patients present to dental practices with pain that is not related to the teeth. This six-hour course, combining lecture and clinical case studies, is designed to help dentists identify and manage a wide range of orofacial pain conditions. Attendees will learn practical approaches to treating common temporomandibular disorders, including the use of oral appliances, botulinum toxin therapy, and other modalities. The course also covers how to recognize less common orofacial pain syndromes and when to refer for specialized care. By the end of the session, participants will be equipped with diagnostic and therapeutic tools they can apply immediately in daily practice.

Learn to:

• diagnose and treat common temporomandibular disorders

• recognize when jaw pain may not be related to the temporomandibular joint
