Temporo-Mandibular Disorders - (Short Course)

The diagnosis and management of TMD has, over the years, created a certain amount of controversy.

This one day course provides delegates with the facts about TMD, using evidence-based practice, so that they can treat their patients secure in the knowledge that their clinical practice can be easily justified.
