WLHG1: Anatomy of the Masticatory System: Clinical Application
Objective:
Review basic anatomical relationships which are key to a detailed examination of the dental patient
Be involved in discussion relating to temporomandibular joint health and path function
Understand various subgroups of masticatory muscle disorders
Review anatomical factors relating to glandular, neural, and vascular pain that may mimic odontogenic or temporomandibular-related conditions

This full 1 day program is designed to provide the participant with a anatomical review of the dynamic masticatory system. A case-based format will provide for application of basic anatomical principles. Areas of special emphasis include: osteology, the oral cavity, nasal cavity, salivary glands, musculature, and the temporomandibular joint. Relationships to routine dental assessment and differential diagnosis of orofacial pain will be highlighted.Objective:
