Comprehensive Multidisciplinary Management of TMDs Conference
SEPTEMBER 19 - 21, 3 DAY DIDACTIC & PRACTICAL SEMINAR AT BELLAGIO VEGAS
Why Dentists should understand TMD – And how this course can help
Dentists play a crucial role in managing the health and function of the jaw system. When patients present with musculoskeletal pain related to their jaw, it is often the dentist’s responsibility to recognize and address the issue. That is why a solid understanding of jaw function, occlusion, and pain management is essential.
The Treat TMD Conference provides dentists with the foundational principles of jaw function, helping them determine when occlusion is a factor and how to manage complex cases effectively. Beyond that, it ensures they can identify broader pain conditions that could impact treatment, preventing misdiagnosis and mistreatment. This conference is designed to expand clinical expertise and improve patient outcomes.
Welcome to the TreatTMD Conference in Las Vegas
TreatTMD is committed to empowering healthcare professionals by providing the knowledge and tools necessary to effectively integrate temporomandibular disorder (TMD) treatment into their practices. Our mission is to enhance patient care through valuable resources, expert insights, and ongoing education in the field of TMD.
Why This Conference Is Essential for Dentists:
Due to the nature of dental procedures, which often require patients to keep their jaws open for extended periods, there is an inherent risk of exacerbating or contributing to TMJ issues, including disc displacement. Recognizing and responding to these conditions effectively is not just beneficial—it’s essential for patient care.
Dentists, your role extends beyond routine care. You are often the first point of contact for patients experiencing jaw-related issues. The Treat TMD Conference is designed specifically to deepen your understanding and management of temporomandibular disorders (TMD), a common but often complex condition affecting many of your patients.
