Webinar Date & Time:

Sunday, August 23rd, 2026, 8:00 AM - 12:00 AM Pacific Time (US & Canada)

Duration: 4 Hours

Preventive medicine is the future of dentistry, it can eliminate unwanted costs and provide lasting and rapid pain relief to all patients. Development of TMD and Craniofacial pain can be prevented by the understanding and physiology of our body. Dr. Ariz will be evaluating the current approach and treatment modalities which are research-based evidence and paradigm changes.

Learning Objectives:

  • Diagnosis of oro-facial pain
  • Discover the origin of TMD
  • Non-Surgical care options
  • Where to seek help
  • Treatment of oro-facial pain
  • Proper pain management

 

Presenter:

Dr. Farshid Ariz, DDS, Diplomate ABDSM, ABCDSM, ABCP, FICD

Synopsis:

Oral pain can often be complex, with symptoms that overlap between dental, musculoskeletal, and airway-related conditions. For general dentists, recognizing whether the source of pain is odontogenic, neuromuscular, or referred from surrounding structures is critical to providing effective care and avoiding unnecessary treatment. This webinar will provide clinicians with a practical framework for diagnosing and managing orofacial pain, with emphasis on when to treat, when to monitor, and when to refer.

Participants will learn to distinguish artificial/orofacial pain from its true origin, understand the underlying role of airway and functional disorders, and apply preventive strategies that reduce recurrence. Special focus will be given to conditions often overlooked in dental practice, such as nasal breathing dysfunction, sleep bruxism, capsulitis, and cervico-facial myofascial pain.

Learning Objectives:

By the end of this webinar, attendees will be able to:

  1. Identify the primary versus referred sources of oral and facial pain.
  2. Recognize the relationship between nasal breathing, airway disorders, and chronic oral pain.
  3. Diagnose and manage capsulitis and cervical/facial myofascial pain within dental practice.
  4. Understand the role of sleep bruxism in orofacial pain and its management options.
  5. Determine when to initiate treatment in-office and when to make appropriate medical referrals.
  6. Implement preventive approaches to reduce recurrence and improve patient outcomes.

Key Topics Covered:

  • Differentiating odontogenic from non-odontogenic oral pain
  • Nasal breathing and its role in oral-facial health

 

  • Sleep bruxism: recognition, risks, and management strategies
  • Capsulitis of the temporomandibular joint: diagnosis and treatment
  • Cervico-facial myofascitis: identifying muscular sources of pain
  • Referral guidelines: when to collaborate with ENT, neurology, or sleep specialists
  • Preventive strategies in dental practice for long-term patient health
