Register Now >

This whole day symposium builds on the International Classification of Orofacial Pain published in early 2020. The first 2 talks will discuss basic pathophysiological mechanisms of the trigeminal pain pathways and psychosocial mechanisms of orofacial pain. Next, the mechanisms behind the conditions in each chapter of the ICOP l be presented in separate talks. Finally, the symposium will be rounded off by presenting state-of-the-art personalized pain management. 

Learning Objectives:

  1. Understand basic pathophysiological and psychosocial mechanisms of orofacial pain
  2. Describe the mechanisms underlying different orofacial pains
  3. Describe state of the art personalized management of pain
