Overview

Oral Surgery is a specialty that has for some years been delivered largely in hospitals, meaning GDPs have had to refer their patients and become subsequently unfamiliar with how an oral surgery patient is managed. Now that some oral surgery patients are being managed in primary care, the speaker wishes to furnish GDPs with the familiarity of how oral surgery is performed with a view to empowering them to take on their own cases when appropriate.

Aims

To help GDPs understand how routine dento-alveolar surgery is delivered in dental practice.

Learning Objectives

By the end of this webinar, attendees should be able to:

• Know which cases to refer and which cases to take on in the dental practice setting
• Know how to carefully take a history from oral surgery patients
• Understand the pertinent medical conditions affecting the management of oral surgery patients in primary care
• Understand how to assess oral surgery patients
• Become familiar with oral surgery techniques in dental practice

Overview

Post-Traumatic Trigeminal Neuropathy (PTTN) is a chronic pain condition resulting from injury to the trigeminal nerve, often due to dental procedures, facial trauma, or surgery. It presents as persistent numbness, tingling, or pain in the affected region, significantly impacting quality of life. Diagnosis involves clinical evaluation, imaging, and sensory testing to differentiate it from other neuropathies. Management includes medications such as anticonvulsants and antidepressants, nerve blocks, and, in severe cases, surgical interventions. This presentation explores the pathophysiology, diagnostic challenges, and evidence-based treatment strategies for PTTN to optimize patient outcomes.

Aims

This webinar aims to provide an understanding of Post-Traumatic Trigeminal Neuropathy (PTTN), including its causes, symptoms, and diagnosis. It will explore various treatment options, from medications to advanced therapies, and discuss strategies for improving patient outcomes through early diagnosis and multidisciplinary care.

Learning Objectives

By the end of this webinar, attendees should be able to:

• Explain the pathophysiology and causes of Post-Traumatic Trigeminal Neuropathy (PTTN).
• Identify key clinical features and differentiate PTTN from other neuropathic conditions.
• Describe diagnostic tools, including imaging and sensory testing methods.
• Evaluate treatment options, including pharmacological, interventional, and emerging therapies.
• Develop effective management strategies to improve patient outcomes and quality of life.
