When Oral Pathology & Oral Medicine Converge


Physical Examination of the Dental Patient:
A Modern Approach

Review of systemic diseases commonly encountered in dental patients

Review of Clinical Oral and maxillofacial pathology: Management of typical and atypical mucosal conditions

We will review...
  1. physical diagnosis of the head and neck, with an emphasis on skin lesions of the face, neck examination, including thyroid gland, and cranio- facial nerve assessment.
  2. systemic diseases commonly seen in the aging dental patient. In addition, we will also discuss management of these patients for the general dental practitioner.
  3. oral mucosal lesions commonly seen in dental practice, and how they are managed.
  4. oral mucosal lesions seen at the School of Dental Medicine, University at Buffalo that presented as diagnostic quandaries.
  5. various biopsy procedures, and patient management after diagnosis.

Benefits of Attending:
You are often the primary provider for patients with oral and maxillofacial pathology. Modern dental care has evolved to the point that many procedures, which were formerly referred to specialists, are now managed by general practitioners.

You may benefit from a review of
  • the elements of a thorough head and neck/”cancer screening exam” for all patients
  • patient vital signs assessment, and why vital signs are critical for proper patient care
  • updated information on common systemic diseases seen in aging patients of a modern dental practice
  • lesions of the maxillofacial region that the general dentist is likely to encounter
  • management schemes for patients with oral and maxillofacial pathology
At the end of this program, the you should be able to:
  1. Take an accurate medical history without the use of forms.
  2. Know how to measure a patient’s blood pressure, pulse rate and rhythm, and respiratory rate.
  3. Know why measurement of vital signs on every patient is key to successful patient management.
  4. Perform a thorough head and neck examination, including assessment of deep neck structures and cranial nerves.
  5. Have an increased awareness of common systemic disease that affects their patients, and how to provide for the medically compromised patient.
  6. Recognize the appearance of common oral mucosal pathological lesions.
  7. Know the indications for biopsy of oral lesions.
  8. Be familiar with the basic elements of incisional vs. excisional biopsy techniques.

Intended audience:
This course is intended for general dentists, dental specialists, dental hygienists, physicians, nurses, and dental or medical students.

This course will use Power Point presentations, small group discussion, case studies and “hands on” demonstration in order to facilitate learning.
