Dr. Henry A. Gremillion Memorial Symposium

The primary reason individuals seek care from their healthcare providers is pain. Pain in the head and face can often be confounding to the dental team if pathology is not obvious. This course will provide the practitioner with an overview of the varied orofacial pain conditions that include temporomandibular disorders (TMDs) as well as pains that may be less clear in etiology. These other conditions affecting the orofacial region may include trigeminal neuralgia, primary headaches, burning mouth disorder, and other related syndromes. Through the understanding of orofacial pain classifications and evidence-based approaches to diagnosis and therapy, attendees will gain the confidence and expertise to more accurately diagnose and, in some cases, effectively manage diverse orofacial pain presentations.

Radiographic Navigation in the Diagnosis of Lesions within the Jaws : Diagnosis of 2D and 3D images

The morning session will be based on 2D imaging, including the interpretation of panoramic radiographs. Panoramic radiographs provide an image of both jaws and the dentition in a single film. Accurate patient positioning is critical to ensure a diagnostic panoramic image. This course will address the proper steps to obtain a proper panoramic image. Participants will learn panoramic anatomy, case-based interpretation of panoramic radiographs, and commonly seen errors.

The afternoon session will use a case-based approach to reviewing CBCT volume, identifying incidental findings, and recognizing abnormal findings. Optimal imaging protocols and doses for various dental indications will also be presented.
