About the Event

Our goal is to provide an update on the current status of Temporomandibular Disorder (TMD) initiatives, identify opportunities and barriers to advancing TMD research, education, and care. We highly value the input and participation of TMD patients in this meeting and ensure their voices are heard. Together, we will propose solutions to the barriers and make recommendations on how to implement these solutions, ultimately advancing the health of TMD patients and improving their care. Join us for the TMJ Patient-Led RoundTable Meeting.
