Course Description

Implants, Occlusion, Oral Diagnosis, Oral Surgery, Orofacial Pain, Orthodontics, Radiology

This is not your typical radiology course. Dr. Tamimi brings in her understanding of the craniofacial complex and how it interacts with not only itself, but also with the rest of the human body. The course is designed to relay this understanding to the participants through graphic representation and radiographic images. The anatomy viewed on the CBCT scan can give important clues to the patient’s condition and overall health and, when paired with the clinical information, can be integral to the development of a sound treatment plan. The CBCT scan presents the three-dimensional information to us. This course will teach you to derive this information from the scan. For each anatomic structure reviewed, the relevance to dentistry and how to manipulate the anatomy to find the necessary diagnostic information will be covered.

Included with this course is BeamReaders new oral radiologist led on-demand CBCT education. This video content you can enjoy at your own pace, and also refer back to it at any time as a reference. These are short videos covering foundations of CBCT, understanding 3D anatomy, and a comprehensive search pattern for going through a scan. This is a strongly recommended prerequisite to attending the live, virtual course. And you’ll receive an additional five (5) CE hours when you complete the content as well! Upon registration, the on-demand course will be added to your account within 1 business day for instant access.

Course Objectives

At the completion of this course the participants should be able to:

  1. Learn a systematic method of reviewing dentoalveolar CBCT scans to ensure you don't miss anything.
  2. Review the pertinent anatomy on a CBCT volume and how it relates to the multiple facets of dental treatment.
  3. Establish a problem-solving method when faced with an abnormality on the scan.
  4. Understand the importance of evaluating the TMJs radiographically to assess stability of the bite prior to dental treatment.
