I just returned from a four-day conference in Denver held by the American Academy of Orofacial Pain. The theme of the conference was “Sleep and Pain: A Translational Approach to Comprehensive Care”. One important thing about sleep is that if sleep is non-restorative, that is the path for chronification of pain.
Various researchers and clinicians spoke on sleep and pain related topics such as sleep disorders (eg, obstructive sleep apnea), migraines and temporomandibular disorders (TMDs).
Over the next year, I will try to unpack all this information into bite-sized blog posts as my brain processes the information. I will also try to intersperse these with general tidbits on TMDs, jaw care, and other related subjects.
After that, it will be time for another conference.
If you have any requests for certain related topics or subjects, please let me know in the comments section. Thanks!
