Course Description:

How many times do you look into a patient’s oral cavity and wonder what condition or lesion you are observing and more importantly what are you going to do with it? Because most of dental practice is concerned with restorative dentistry and surgical procedures, the less commonly occurring areas of oral diagnosis and treatment are often overlooked. Much has changed in the last several years that will influence your diagnosis and treatment of these frustrating and often painful oral conditions.

This presentation includes the following and other information:

A logical approach to the diagnosis and treatment of aphthous stomatitis

A logical approach to the diagnosis and treatment of oral lichen planus

A logical approach to the diagnosis and treatment of chronic ulcerative stomatitis

A logical approach to the diagnosis and treatment of benign mucous membrane pemphigoid

Applications of practical clinical information for everyday practice

This presentation will assist you greatly in identifying and treating these conditions and will allow you to better treat your patients with this new knowledge.
