TMD, Pain Management & Botox® in Dentistry


21st Century Pain Management Protocols

This weekend will open up exciting ways for you to treat patients who suffer from pain!

Do you have patients that have tried everything but still have headaches? This class can help you be their hero with a systematic checklist to help treat their pain. You will learn how to set up a clear system of how to diagnose and treat these desperate patients.

On Day 1 you will focus on TMD & Pain Management Protocols. Using his experience from helping thousands of patients suffering from pain, Dr. Dana will help you set up protocols in your own practice—including management of TMD, headaches, migraines, and orofacial pain.

On Day 2, master the useful tool of Botulinum Toxin within dentistry. Learn with extensive lecturing, legal forms to bring back to your practice, and hands-on exercises. Every student will be able to perform Botox® injections on live patients while being overseen by Dr. David Dana, an expert for decades in this field. Want to learn more about cases treated by Botox?
