New Perspectives on the diagnosis of Persistent Orofacial Pain
The accurate diagnosis of persistent Orofacial Pain conditions remains a clinical challenge for general dentists and dental specialists. Advances in radiological techniques have enhanced our ability to detect tissue injury and infection. In addition, an improved understanding of acute and chronic pain mechanisms allows us to interpret the patient's history and clinical presentation in a more meaningful and accurate way.
Aims and Objectives:
This presentation will review the diagnostic process for persistent orofacial pain in terms of maximising information gathered from the pain history, clinical examination and imaging studies. Recent advances in our understanding of orofacial pain mechanisms will be discussed in relation the diagnostic process. A series of clinical cases will be presented to illustrate important diagnostic considerations.
Brief CV:
Dr Dermot Canavan graduated in 1980 from Trinity College Dublin. He completed his residency training in Orofacial pain management at the University of California in Los Angeles 1984. Since that time he has maintained a private practice in Dublin and lectures in orofacial pain management at Dublin Dental School and Hospital. He also has a private clinic in London on a part time basis. Dr Canavan is a former president of the Irish Pain Society and is currently deputy editor of the Journal of the Irish Dental Association.
