Descripción

Step beyond conventional dentistry and discover how osteopathic principles can transform your clinical outcomes.

 

This comprehensive program bridges dental care and whole-body health, equipping you with the skills to evaluate and treat patients holistically. You’ll explore cranial osteopathy, fascia dynamics, and the primary respiratory mechanism (PRM), learning how tongue posture, jaw motion, and cranial movement influence systemic function.

 

During the course, you will learn in detail about:


– The foundations of osteopathy and its relevance to dentistry
– Principles of cranial osteopathy and the PRM
– How tongue posture and bite mechanics impact posture and breathing
– The role of fascia in swallowing, jaw motion, and functional disorders
– Osteopathic evaluation techniques for TMJ dysfunction, vertigo, migraines, and headaches
– Practical cranial palpation skills and release techniques
– Targeted interventions, including hyoid, buccal, and cranial releases
– Strategies to integrate osteopathic methods into daily dental practice for lasting results.

Lección 1.Introduction to Osteopathy and Primary Respiratory Mechanism (PRM)

– What is osteopathy? Fundamental concepts
– Overview of cranial osteopathy and the primary respiratory mechanism (PRM)
– Lab demonstration: how tongue and bite influence posture
– In-depth discussion: cranial motion during flexion and extension
– Specific focus on facial, jaw, and airway dynamics
– Cranial palpation techniques.

 

Recommended for: Orthodontists, Prosthodontists, Functional dentists, General dentists.

Lección 2.Fascia: Structure and Function

– Foundations of fascia
– Introduction to fascia and its structural properties
– Fascial anatomy with emphasis on the upper body
– Key functions of fascia in movement and stability.

 

Recommended for: Orthodontists, Prosthodontists, Functional dentists, General dentists.

Lección 3.Fascia in Swallowing Mechanics

– Overview of swallowing physiology: stages of swallowing and key muscular groups
– The role of fascia in swallowing mechanics: fascial support for tongue, pharynx, and hyoid complex
– Coordination of fascial structures in oral and pharyngeal function: integration with muscles, nerves, and connective tissue pathways
– Impact of fascial restrictions: how tension or adhesions alter swallowing efficiency
– Clinical implications for swallowing disorders: links to dysphagia, speech issues, and airway dysfunction.

 

Recommended for: Orthodontists, Prosthodontists, Functional dentists, General dentists.

Lección 4.Fascial Dysfunctions and Their Clinical Significance

– Impact of fascial dysfunction on oral and craniofacial function: consequences for jaw alignment, posture, and airway health
– Influence of tongue ties on fascial dynamics: restrictions in lingual mobility and their ripple effect on swallowing and oral development
– Relationship between tongue thrusting and fascial imbalance: how maladaptive swallowing patterns disrupt fascial tension and contribute to dysfunction
– Clinical perspectives: recognizing signs of fascial dysfunction in practice and strategies for management.

 

Recommended for: Orthodontists, Prosthodontists, Functional dentists, General dentists.

Lección 5.Osteopathic Insights into TMJ Dysfunction

– TMJ dysfunctions: beyond the muscles of mastication
– Interplay of cranial structures and jaw mechanics
– Fascial and dural contributions to TMJ-related pain
– Osteopathic strategies for restoring balance and function.

 

Recommended for: Orthodontists, Prosthodontists, Functional dentists, General dentists.

Lección 6.Osteopathic Perspectives on Cranial Pain and Vertigo

– Vertigo: the impact of temporal bone dysfunctions
– Migraines: addressing dural strains
– Headaches: osteopathic assessment and treatment considerations
– Integrative osteopathic approaches for managing cranial dysfunctions.

 

Recommended for: Orthodontists, Prosthodontists, Functional dentists, General dentists.

Lección 7.Comprehensive Evaluation and Foundational Release Techniques

– Comprehensive patient evaluation:


- Assessing cranial, oral, and fascial dynamics
- Identifying structural and functional restrictions.


– Foundational release techniques:


- Hyoid release for improved airway and swallowing function
- Bilateral superior buccal release to address maxillary and facial tension
- Inferior buccal release to improve mandibular mobility and balance.


– Integration into clinical practice:


- Combining evaluation findings with targeted interventions
- Sequencing release techniques for maximum effectiveness.

 

Recommended for: Orthodontists, Prosthodontists, Functional dentists, General dentists.
