Full Course Program
A Pediatric Rheumatologist Perspective on TMJ Arthritis, Challenges in Diagnosis and Management
This lesson presents the perspective of a pediatric rheumatologist on temporomandibular joint (TMJ) arthritis. It focuses on the challenges of diagnosing and managing TMJ arthritis in children, offering valuable insights for specialists working with this age group.
Acupuncture in the Management of Orofacial Pain
This lesson explores the use of acupuncture in the management of orofacial pain. It discusses acupuncture techniques used for pain relief and presents evidence of the effectiveness of this alternative therapy
CGRP Blocking Medications for Migraines, Update and New Additions
This lesson provides updated information on CGRP (calcitonin gene-related peptide) blocking medications used for the treatment of migraines. It reviews new additions to this class of drugs and their application in clinical practice.
Demystifying Neuromodulation, Treatment Options for Headache, Neuropathic Pain and Other REfractory Pains
This lesson aims to simplify the understanding of neuromodulation as a treatment method for headache, neuropathic pain, and other refractory pain syndromes. It reviews various neuromodulation options and their applications.
Glial Targets for Neuropathic Orofacial Pain
This presentation explores the crucial role of glial cells in neuropathic pain, particularly in trigeminal neuralgia. It challenges the traditional view of neuropathic pain as solely a neuronal disorder, proposing that glial dysfunction may be a key factor. The discussion covers the interactions between neurons and glia in both peripheral and central nervous systems, and how these interactions contribute to pain sensitization. Various potential therapeutic approaches targeting glial cells are examined, including novel stimulation techniques, nutraceuticals, and lifestyle interventions. The content provides insights into emerging strategies for managing and potentially preventing persistent orofacial pain conditions by modulating glial cell activity.
Imaging in TMD, New Technologies on the Horizon
This presentation explores the latest advancements in TMJ imaging technologies, focusing on ultrasound and MRI applications. It discusses the potential of ultrasound for diagnosing TMJ disorders and identifying trigger points in masticatory muscles. The development of dental-dedicated MRI scanners is highlighted, showcasing their improved accessibility and tailored functionality for dental practices. The presentation also delves into functional imaging techniques, such as dynamic MRI, which allow for real-time visualization of TMJ movement. By examining these cutting-edge imaging modalities, the content provides insights into how emerging technologies can enhance diagnosis, treatment planning, and patient management in TMJ-related cases.
Long Term Opioid Therapy in Chronic Pain Research Findings on Opioid Misuse and Clinical Implications
This presentation explores the use of opioids for chronic pain management, discussing both potential benefits and risks. It examines factors associated with opioid misuse and addiction among chronic pain patients, and outlines various approaches to prevent or mitigate opioid-related problems. The content covers risk assessment strategies, opioid tapering methods, and the role of psychological interventions in managing opioid use. By providing an overview of current research and clinical implications, this material offers insights into the complex issues surrounding long-term opioid therapy for chronic pain.
Making Pain Matter, Prioritizing Prevention and Management of Chronic Pain in Children and Adolescents
This presentation explores the significance of pediatric chronic pain and its long-term impact on health and development. It discusses the prevalence of pain in children, its effects on daily functioning, and the importance of early intervention. The speaker examines how childhood pain can persist into adulthood and affect various life outcomes. Evidence-based psychological interventions for managing pediatric chronic pain are presented, with a focus on digital health solutions to improve accessibility. The role of sleep in treatment outcomes is highlighted, suggesting the need for tailored approaches in pain management for children and adolescents.
