Pain Management

When a patient is in pain and in the chair, they seek your expertise to alleviate
their immediate problem. Diagnosis is often straight forward, but what about
when it isn’t? Frequently there are multiple layers of pain clouding our testing
and judgment. It is important to get it right, and there is no topic more fraught
with downside than an incorrect diagnosis. In this interactive discussion, the
course will dive into complex diagnostic situations and strategies to get it right
and serve our patient population. Solving a patient’s immediate pain builds trust
and is an integral part of comprehensive dentistry.
