Prof. Dr. Daniele Manfredini, together with 11 other speakers, welcomes you to Orofacial Pain Academy, the video course that unites all the world’s leading experts in the management of orofacial pain, TMDs and bruxism.
The dental profession is constantly facing new challenges. Amongst these, the different causes of orofacial pain are an argument that represents a hot topic in many fields of dental education. Orofacial Pain Academy is divided into four thematic modules to provide dental professionals with a comprehensive overview of the diagnosis and treatment strategies for orofacial pain, TMDs, and bruxism.
Module 1. Orofacial Pain
Presented by a line-up of Past-Presidents of the American Academy of Orofacial Pain, this module discusses the most common non-dental causes of facial pain: neuropathies of the trigeminal system, primary headaches and the Burning Mouth Syndrome.
Module 2. Temporomandibular Disorders
This module is dedicated to TMDs, from the basic diagnostic considerations to the best management strategies for both articular and muscular disorders.
Module 3. Sleep Dentistry
This module is dedicated to sleep medicine, with a focus on the role that dentists play in the diagnosis of sleep disorders of dental interest.
Module 4. Bruxism
This last module provides clinicians with a comprehensive overview of sleep bruxism and awake bruxism, the relationship between Sleep Bruxism and Obstructive Sleep Apnea, and the new Ecological Momentary Assessment (EMA).
Who the course is for:
The course is based on the principle that every general dentist can and should play a central role in the prevention, diagnosis and management of orofacial pain and TMDs, and is therefore recommended to all oral health specialists who wish to get a deeper understanding of the many facets of orofacial pain.

The field of Orofacial Pain has rapidly gained interest since the new definition of Dental Sleep Medicine pays attention not only to sleep-disordered breathing conditions but also to those conditions related to sleep that can have an impact on the patient’s overall health, i.e. sleep bruxism, GERD, oral moistening disorders, sleep headaches and other kinetic mandibular disorders.
