This first webinar will delve into the management of oro-facial trauma in athletes. Specialists will review the effects of oral health on athletic performance and wellbeing, and explore the intersection of dentistry with other fields managing sports injuries and performance in athletes. Dentistry has historically been forgotten when it comes to sports medicine. However, it is now being recognised as an important element of athlete well-being with teams and coaches advocating dental health when defining coaching and training strategies.
During this webinar you will:
- Describe dental and facial injuries commonly sustained during sports participation
- Discuss the effects of dental and facial trauma in athletes
- Understand key management principles for managing facial injuries in sports
A CPD certificate with 1 CPD credit will be issued to those joining the webinar live as well as those who watch the recording afterwards. Certificates will be issued 7 days after the webinar to those who watch it live and after 30 days for those that watch the recording.
This two-part webinar series aims to explore some of the areas where dentistry and head and neck surgery overlaps with athletic performance. We will hear from top-level clinicians and several that perform and compete at high levels themselves.
