| Click to play a portion of DVD #25, Non-Odontogenic Toothache. |
In this DVD lecture Dr. Okeson presents information on one of
the most common pain complaints in the dental office:
toothache. Most toothaches have their origin in the pulpal
tissues or periodontal structures. These odontogenic pains are
managed well and predictably by dental therapies.
Non-odontogenic toothaches, however, are often difficult to
identify and can challenge the diagnostic ability of the clinician.
The most important step towards proper management of
toothache is to be suspicious that the pain may not be of
dental origin. Dr. Okeson uses this topic to bring much of this
entire lecture series together. He highlights seven different
sources of pain that can be felt in the teeth yet are unrelated
to pulpal and periodontal structures. Understanding these
sources of pain is essential in a dental practice. Keys to
differentiating these pains from odontogenic pains will be
presented so that the clinician can appropriately diagnosis and
manage these conditions. This DVD is essential for any dentist.
