Course Objectives:
Mastering occlusion often remains an elusive goal. Understanding the anatomy, physiology and potential pathology of the TMJ and the risks associated with each case is fundamental for the evaluation, diagnosis and treatment of occlusal problems. Many have taken high-level continuing education courses but we still struggle to implement effective protocols for treating the patient with TMJ disorders, facial pain and advanced interdisciplinary care. In this Global Diagnosis Mastery course we present a year-long study club which focuses on this topic to help make you the “go to” expert and provide predictable and stable care for your patients. Global Diagnosis Education is about learning and growing together in an environment that helps you to facilitate care to enrich your life and the lives of your patients. Join us for what we know will be one of the best experiences in your continuing education journey.
