The Troublesome Connection Between TMD and Airway

Oral Diagnosis, Oral Medicine, TMJ

When patients present to dental offices with TMD and head pain, most dentists don’t ask about other somatic pain syndromes or take a detailed history that might reveal airway problems. This lecture establishes why TMD & airway are often linked, provides tools to help manage chronic conditions and positions dentists as experts in helping patients achieve greater overall health.

The educational teaching methodology used in this course is a self-study lecture presented via pre-recorded webinar in concert with an accompanying PowerPoint presentation. Both the pre-recorded webinar and the PowerPoint presentation incorporate a variety of audio and visual cues to enhance audience members’ understanding and retention of key concepts.
