Fireside Chat - From Symptoms to Systems: A Conversation On Temporomandibular Disorders
Temporomandibular disorders (TMDs) are among the most complex conditions in oral healthcare, often presenting as localized pain while reflecting broader dysfunction across musculoskeletal, neurological, behavioral, and sleep systems. Diagnosis and management frequently require collaboration across specialties, yet clinical perspectives can differ widely depending on discipline. This fireside conversation brings together experts in orofacial pain, radiology, surgery, and interdisciplinary care to explore TMD from a systems-based viewpoint. Through an interactive dialogue, the panel will examine how structural findings, functional disturbances, patient experience, and treatment pathways intersect — and sometimes conflict — in real-world practice. Rather than focusing on a single protocol, the discussion will highlight the nuances of clinical decision-making, the role of imaging and intervention, and the importance of coordinated care in improving outcomes for patients with TMD. Participants will gain insight into how different specialties approach the same condition and how integrating these perspectives can lead to more comprehensive and effective management.
