🦷 Topic: Beyond the Jaw: The Role of Sleep and Psychosocial Dynamics in TMD

💡 Are we still missing the bigger picture in TMD diagnosis?

Splint therapy alone may not be enough. TMD is rarely just a mechanical issue—it often reflects a deeper interplay of sleep disturbances and psychosocial factors. In this lecture, Dr. Marpaung unpacks the hidden drivers behind chronic pain and dysfunction, offering evidence-based insights that go beyond the jaw. Discover how integrating sleep and mental health considerations can lead to better, more sustainable outcomes for your TMD patients.
