Course Description

This continuing educatio n course will provide attendees with essential skills for evaluating and m anaging non-odontogenic orofacial pain disorders. The presentation covers the epidemiology and prevalence of orofacial pain conditions\, detailed cl inical examination techniques including temporomandibular joint and muscle palpation protocols\, and the pathophysiology of myofascial pain with tri gger point referral patterns.

Special attention will be given to the relationship between temporomandibular disorders and burning mouth syndro me\, including evidence-based pharmacological management using tricyclic a ntidepressants. Through clinical case presentations utilizing a structured documentation system (SmartNote)\, participants will learn to create comp rehensive clinical notes\, formulate accurate differential diagnoses\, and develop appropriate treatment plans incorporating trigger point injection s\, home therapy protocols\, and medication management.
