McMillan Family Dental
1720 W. McMillan Road,
Meridian, ID 83646
Course Details
After dental pain, TMDs are the most common cause of orofacial pain. Various studies have shown that TMD affects 10%−15% of the adult population. To effectively treat patients with TMD, we must first be able to diagnose the root of their pain accurately and then predictably treat them.
Our 2-Day (16 hour) didactic and hands-on live patient training course teaches how to successfully treat orofacial pain, headaches/migraines, TMD syndrome, and TM joint pain with non-surgical, reversible, and minimally invasive treatments that are highly effective. Learn how to immediately integrate Therapeutic Botox for TMJ, Trigger Point Injections, Photobiomodulation, and PRF injections for TM Joint pain into your practice. In this in-depth anatomical course, learn proper evaluation, treatment planning, dosing, documentation and injection techniques that will enable you to begin using these skills in your office immediately.
