These Topics and More!

Anatomy & Function
of the TMJ

Understand the bones, muscles, ligaments, and nerves involved in TMJ function, explores how these components work together for movement and stability, and highlights common variations and pathologies.


Neuroanatomy

Explore the structure and function of the central nervous system with a focus on pain perception and modulation. This lecture covers key components such as the meninges, cerebrospinal fluid, and how the brain interprets and responds to pain — providing essential insights for understanding the neurological basis of orofacial pain.

Electrodiagnostics (JVA, Jaw Tracking, EMG)

Discover how electrodiagnostic tools bring precision to TMD assessment. Learn how technologies like EMG, JVA, and T-Scan offer objective insights into muscle activity, joint stability, and bite force, supporting more accurate diagnoses and targeted treatment planning.

Sleep Disorders & TMJ Dysfunction

Explore how sleep disorders impact overall health and TMJ function. Learn to identify sleep stages, common conditions like OSA and insomnia, and understand key brain structures and hormones involved in sleep. This module also covers diagnostic tools, treatment options including CPAP and oral appliances, and highlights the critical role of interdisciplinary care.


Sleep Appliance Therapy
& Nasal Breathing

Gain practical knowledge on the use of oral appliances in managing sleep-disordered breathing. Learn about appliance types, indications, side effects, titration protocols, and patient selection criteria. This lecture also explores the importance of nasal breathing and collaborative care with sleep specialists for successful treatment outcomes.



Nutrition & Chronic Pain Management

Understand the role of nutrition in reducing pain and inflammation. This session covers the Deflamation Diet, key nutrients like vitamin D, B12, and magnesium, and the gut-brain connection. Learn evidence-based strategies to support chronic pain patients through dietary interventions that promote healing and overall wellbeing.
