Description: Dentistry has become more aware of breathing issues and how they relate to the hard and soft tissue damage we see daily in the office. An overview of breathing mechanics and how it relates to the patients in our dental chair will be shared as well as breathing techniques and screening questions. Many times, myofunctional therapy also enhances the airway, and numerous studies have shown its efficacy in assisting sleep apnea patients. A discussion of how tethered oral tissues can affect the airway and a walk-through of an objective chairside exam will be given. Be able to take your knowledge back to the office Monday morning and implement it in your exams.

Description: Having "some nerve" means having unshakable confidence. We all seek this type of confidence in our diagnosis and treatment of patients. The nerves in the head and neck are a complex component of our patient's bodies. What pathological conditions do our patients experience from the nerves? What are the nerves in our patient's mouth telling us? What challenges do the anatomy of nerves present during treatment, and how do we navigate those challenges? Let's dive deeper into the nerves of our patients' head and neck to develop that "unshakable confidence" in providing local anesthesia, pain reduction, and pathology identification by better understanding our patients' anatomy.
