Craniofacial Pain and Pathofunction - Part IV

Mini-Residency in Craniofacial Pain

COURSE DESCRIPTION:

This is an advanced participation course incorporating lecture, demonstration, and patient contact. To maximize your educational experience and facilitate productive group interaction, you must have an understanding of the basics of orofacial pain diagnosis and management procedures.

Participants will be divided into groups of two for observation of the examination and treatment of patients, and will remain in these groups for the majority of the time during the mini-residency. The groups will rotate each day, enabling all participants to observe each faculty member involved in diagnosis and treatment of patients. At the completion of each half day clinic session, all groups will meet to conference on each of the patients.

In addition to small group participation, the course will include approximately four hours of lecture and demonstration devoted to the following topics:

• TM joint surgical considerations
• Long term management techniques
• Topics as selected by participants

Following this program, participants should have a heightened awareness of the multidisciplinary approach to diagnosis and management of orofacial pain.

PATIENT SELECTION: Every attempt will be made to provide a representative sample of patients typically seen in the Pain Center.
