Treatment of Severe Forms of TMJ Diseases

Treatment of Severe Forms of TMJ Diseases is organized by OHI-S.

Total lecture time: 8 h 44 min

Description:
Online course on both conservative and surgical treatment methods of severe TMJ diseases put together for you.
In 8 online lessons, David Angelo and Sylvain Chamberland will consistently analyze the information that is necessary for the work of orthodontists, oral and maxillofacial surgeons and functional dentists:

• Anatomy and biomechanics of the TMJ
• Minimally invasive surgery
• Hemimandibular hyperplasia and facial asymmetry: aetiology, diagnosis, and treatment of progressive idiopathic condylar resorption
• TMJ alloplastic total replacement.

This course will break down all aspects of working with severe TMJ diseases. By examining numerous clinical cases, you will understand the thinking strategy of an outstanding oral and maxillofacial surgeon and an expert orthodontist!
