ABC: Airway, Bruxism, & Craniofacial Pain Dental Course Description
Dentists involved in the treatment of obstructive sleep apnea, TMJ/TMD pain, or bruxism should be knowledgeable in all three disorders.
Understanding the correlation between airway, bruxism, and craniofacial pain can help you grow your dental sleep medicine and craniofacial pain practice by identifying root causes of symptoms and building stronger referral relationships with physicians.
Learn how to assess your patients, prioritize, and fabricate a treatment plan that provides the best results for these three conditions.
With clenching or grinding of one’s teeth being a symptom of pain, OR a way for the brain to protect itself from suffocation, Dr. Mayoor Patel shares how to implement a screening process to help identify bruxism as a sign of TMJ/craniofacial pain or sleep-disordered breathing and manage their treatment.
Getting your patients out of pain and restoring their sleep, energy, health, and quality of life is immensely rewarding and needed by so many patients with sleep apnea, orofacial pain, and bruxism, and this dental course will help you give your patients the best quality of care possible.
