Course/Module description:
The course describes the more common acute and chronic orofacial pain conditions. Students are instructed how to collect relevant data and assess the patient, as the basis for diagnosis of these conditions. The conditions are presented and analyzed from the initial clinical presentation, through diagnosis, pathophysiology, treatment and prognosis employing numerous case presentations. Additionally students are able to examine acute and chronic orofacial pain patients during their rotations in the department.
Course/Module aims:
The course describes common orofacial pain conditions. Students are taught to collect relevant data pertaining to the patient and his pain condition. The student is then expected to organize and analyze the data so as to accurately describe and identify the orofacial pain diagnosis. Finally the student should recommend a suitable mode of therapy and support his choice vis-à-vis other therapeutic options.
