Moscow Orthodontic Study Group is happy to announce its first study club meeting in this academic year! 

 

We decided to revisit the topic of temporomandibular joint (TMJ). Over the previous century, diagnosis and treatment of TMJ problems had been the subject of heated debates between various groups inside the orthodontic community. Nowadays, it seems that this controversy inherited from the past is still stirring arguments between clinicians despite the emergence of evidence-based protocols from contemporary research.

 

We are going to have a scientific look at the issues of TMJ anatomy, management of temporomandibular disorders (TMD), and explore a potential connection between bruxism and TMD. Our study club will be joined online by a world-renowned TMJ expert, Dr. Jeffrey Okeson. He will present his new lecture and then answer questions from the audience.

 

Location: Radisson Blu Leninsky Prospect (Moscow, Leninsky prospect, 90/3).

 

Register before August 17 to get a reduced price:
– Residents/Students: 15,000 10,000 rubles
– Orthodontists/Dentists : 30,000 20,000 rubles.
