| AN ADVANCED AND COMPREHENSIVE PROGRAM ON TEMPOROMANDIBULAR DISORDERS and OROFACIAL PAIN May 18 - 22, 2009 A one week, 35 hour, complete experience in the area of TMD and orofacial pain. by The University of Kentucky Orofacial Pain Center Faculty Jeffrey P Okeson, DMD Reny de Leeuw, DDS, PhD Donald Falace, DMD Charles R Carlson, PhD Juan Yepes, DDS, MD, MS Anne Harrison, PT, PhD Barbara Phillips, MD Lyle Carlson, PhD |
About the Course:
The management of temporomandibular disorders (TMD) and orofacial pain is a complex problem
in dentistry. This complexity arises from the many problems that can be associated with masticatory
function. In order to effectively manage TMD and orofacial pain disorders the clinician must be able to
recognize these disorders from other orofacial pain disorders so that correct treatment can be
selected. This course will be a comprehensive review of the multiple factors that relate to TMD and
orofacial pain disorders. Treatments based on sound scientific principles will be presented. Emphasis
will be placed on diagnosis so that correct therapy will be selected for each patient. The role of each
dental and medical specialty in the management of orofacial pain will be discussed. This course will
benefit all practitioners interested in managing temporomandibular disorders and orofacial pain. In
addition, participants will be provided an introduction to the management of patients with snoring and
obstructive sleep apnea by the use of oral appliances.
What You Will Learn:
To differentiate temporomandibular disorders from other orofacial pain disorders.
To understand the relationship between occlusion, bruxism and temporomandibular disorders.
To understand the relationship between psychological factors and orofacial pain disorders.
To understand the relationship between cervical disorders and orofacial pain disorders.
To take a comprehensive pain history and complete a thorough examination for temporomandibular
disorders and orofacial pain disorders.
To understand the role of imaging in the diagnosis of temporomandibular disorders.
To understand the role of appliance therapy in managing temporomandibular disorders.
To understand the role of the clinical psychologist in managing orofacial pain disorders.
To understand the role of the physical therapist in managing orofacial pain disorders.
To understand the role of pharmacology in managing orofacial pain disorders.
To understand the role of oral appliances in the treatment of snoring and obstructive sleep apnea.
