The University of Kentucky Orofacial Pain Center offers a
Shadowing Program to interested health professionals who wish to
join Dr. Okeson and his faculty and residents for a one week
experience in the Orofacial Pain Center. Each participant takes part
in all the Center’s daily activities for the entire week. These activities
include all literature review sessions, topic seminars, case reports and
patient conferences. Participants also observe in all patient
evaluations and treatments.
The following is a schedule of the Orofacial Pain Center activities

The tuition for this 40 hour continuing education program is $995.00.
The program is offered during most weeks from September through
June. We normally have only one participant each week because we
feel this enhances the learning experience. If you have several
interested participants who wish to enroll in the program together we
will try to accommodate your needs. If you are interested in attending
the Shadowing Program please contact Mr. Dewayne Martin at
<dmart5@email.uky.edu> to arrange a suitable week.
