What Happens When Occlusal Splints Don’t Work? – PDP118


Listen Later

What happens when conservative care fails? What if you have prescribed patient education and the ‘best’ occlusal appliance and none of it is working? That’s where surgery MAY be indicated for certain diagnoses. Listen or Watch my podcast with Professor Andrew Sidebottom Maxillofacial surgeon (who is limited to the management of TMJDs) to help us make timely and appropriate referrals to provide the best possible outcome for our patients.
