TMD patients present with a wide range of concerns and symptoms from tension headaches and muscle challenges to significant joint inflammation and breakdown. Accurate thorough diagnosis is the first step and we will work through a systematic process of gathering a history, clinical exam, appropriate radiography and using new technology for joint diagnosis. The course will cover traditional treatment options of appliance therapy and equilibration, but also look at utilizing pharmacology, physical therapy and other non-traditional modalities. Whether your goal is to treat all TMD patients in your practice or selectively treat some types of cases while referring others, this course will address what you need to be successful and productive.

This course is designed for the General dentist or Specialist who would like to deepen their knowledge about treating Facial Pain and TMD patients. We have a very strong team that includes 1 Board certified Orofacial Pain specialist, an Oral Surgeon with Specific TMD training, two General dentists who have limited their practice to treating Facial Pain, and a General dentist who uses this knowledge in daily practice.

Learning Objectives

  • The basic foundation skills needed to be successful in the diagnosis and treating facial pain
  • Creating a link between anatomical structures & signs/symptoms that patients present with to the dental office.
  • Develop a diagnostic process to understand the most complex patients and recommend treatment.
  • Beyond appliance therapy we will explore therapeutic modalities that include medication, trigger point injections, Botox and more.
  • Radiology: When does it add diagnostic value and how to interpret the findings.

Surgically Facilitated Orthodontic Therapy: An Interdisciplinary Approach

Patients seeking ideal esthetics may require a more sophisticated diagnosis and treatment plan than what restorative dentistry or conventional orthodontic treatment may offer alone. In order to optimize esthetics and function, patients may choose to have the interdisciplinary team utilize orthognathic surgery and surgically facilitated orthodontic therapy (SFOT) to optimize conditions for homeostasis of the periodontal tissues and balance of dentofacial disharmonies. Surgical, orthodontic and restorative perspectives will be presented from a tooth-tooth, tooth-jaw, jaw-jaw and jaws-face context to challenge the IDT team to move beyond traditional therapies into a new frontier for enhanced outcomes.  

LEARNING OBJECTIVES:  

  • To appreciate the limitations of restorative dentistry and conventional orthodontics in treating the patient with esthetic dental needs.
  • To review IDT diagnostic modalities critical to treatment planning of the interdisciplinary patient requiring restorative, orthodontic, periodontal surgery
  • To discuss the role of SFOT in phenotype modification therapy and in the management of dental and skeletal malocclusions.
  • To present how SFOT can complement interdisciplinary treatment, ultimately ensuring esthetic and functional outcome success for the restorative specialist.

The course will also focus on when and how to bond on worn dentition, additive partial indirect restorations (onlays/overlays) in composite and/or ceramic, depending on the indication.

All the step by step protocols will be addressed through step by step images and videos on patients, in order to have a clear over view of this hybrid (direct-indirect) technique through an analog and digital workflow.

Learning Objectives

At the completion of this course, participants will be able to:

  • How to diagnose worn dentition (corrosion; attrition; abrasion; abfraction).
  • Opening the VDO and planning the treatment plan
  • The indications and protocols for a no prep direct adhesive approach: “The Index Technique”.
  • The indications & protocols for a minimal invasive indirect adhesive approach through composite and/or ceramic onlays/overlays.

Course Program

1. How to diagnose worn dentition (erosion, attrition abrasion and abfraction)

2. Esthetic and functional analysis

3. How to increase the VDO and perform the “restorative” wax-up (with video projection on patients)

4. How to perform the transparent index on the “restorative” wax-up (with video projection on patients)

5. Anterior and posterior mock-ups (temporary phase), for esthetics phonetics and function (with video projection on patients

6. Adhesion strategies on worn dentition (with video projection on patients)

7. The indications and protocols, on posterior teeth, for a no prep direct adhesive copy-paste approach: “The Index Technique” (with video projection on patients)
