🦷 HANDS-ON CE AT MBDS | LIMITED SPACE

An Evidence-Based Approach to Diagnosing Muscle, Nerve, Joint, and Headache Pain in Dental Practice

Join Rich Hirschinger, DDS, MBA for a practical, hands-on program designed to help dentists better recognize and diagnose non-odontogenic and orofacial pain before beginning irreversible dental treatment.

Participants will explore muscle pain, nerve pain, TMJ disorders, headaches and more—then put that knowledge into practice with supervised hands-on injection training.

💉 Hands-on training includes:
• Trigger-point injections of the head, neck & shoulders
• Trigeminal nerve blocks
• Greater occipital nerve blocks
• Review of Botox injection sites for jaw muscle pain
• Participants practice injection techniques on one another

📍 Monterey Bay Dental Society
🎓 4 CE Units (Core)
☕ Continental breakfast, juice & coffee provided

Hands-on participation is required for the injection portion. Botox treatment is optional; participants wishing to receive Botox must supply their own product.
