Event Details...

For most general practitioners when a patient presents with TMJ pain we automatically prescribe an occlusal splint and hope that it works. However it is important that we carry out a comprehensive history and examination and actually establish a diagnosis.

As undergraduates we learn anatomy and physiology of the masticatory system and then on graduation we seem to forget it all. This course will guide you through an evidence-based treatment approach of your patient with temporomandibular disorders, as a clinician in practice.

Topics to be covered will include:

  • Classification of TMDs
  • Normal Function of the Masticatory System
  • Dysfunction of the Masticatory System – TMJ
  • Dysfunction of the Masticatory System - Muscle
  • Management Strategies
  • Sleep Bruxism
  • Botulinum Toxin use for TMDs
  • Electronic Instrumentation
  • Occlusion and TMDs
  • Splint Therapy
  • Q & A
