Synopsis

Brought to you by The Clinical Interest Group on Maxillofacial Neurologic Disorders.
This symposium brings together experts in the field of peripheral nerve injury, with particular emphasis on clinical case findings and algorithms for patient management. Presenters will discuss the continuing etiologies of lingual and inferior alveolar nerve injury in dental implant placement, orthognathic surgery, maxillofacial trauma, and benign and malignant ablative surgery and reconstruction. This symposium will introduce ongoing clinical findings and clinical-translational studies in peripheral trigeminal nerve repair, emphasize specific recurrent etiologic themes, and propose treatment algorithms and recommendations for immediate and delayed management of injuries to the lingual and inferior alveolar nerves.

Learning Objectives
  1. Evaluate nerve injuries and the appropriate time to refer to a microsurgeon;
  2. Recognize clinical situations that are at higher risk for nerve injuries; and
  3. Explain the management and treatment options for patients who have a nerve injury secondary to a surgical procedure.
