This presentation will discuss how to use your orofacial pain expertise to add a new dimension to your practice by evaluating and/or treating injured workers. All 50 states have evaluations of injured workers. Injuries to the head and neck often result in TMD, trigeminal and facial nerve injuries, facial fractures, facial lacerations and teeth injuries that may result in disability, and/or treatment. Injuries to other parts of the body can have compensable consequences to the orofacial region through chronic pain, disturbed sleep or the effects of medication. Oral Facial Pain specialists have the necessary skills to perform these evaluations.
