Dental patients can present with craniofacial pain disorders such as neurological conditions, temporomandibular joint disorder, facial pain and headaches. In such cases, the clinician needs to determine whether the disorder warrants immediate medical intervention or whether it will not be affected by the proposed dental treatment. In order to do this, accurate assessment and diagnosis is essential.
Before commencing this session you should:
- Understand basic neuroanatomy and the physiology of cranial nerves
- Be able to identify the different pain pathways
