AM Session: Temporomandibular Joint Disorders
This presentation is aimed at general dentists as well as specialists. The objective is to give an overview of conditions that affect the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) and the masticatory muscles.<br>

PM Session: Neuropathic Pain

We will discuss the types of studies that can shed light on these important questions; and methods to evaluate the quality of evidence.
