Oral Lesions: Recognition, Diagnosis, and Management
As an oral medicine clinician and educator, I enjoy teaching and speaking. Therefore, offering continuing education courses allows me to do both simultaneously.
I will teach a VIRTUAL oral medicine continuing education course titled: "Oral Lesions: Recognition, Diagnosis, and Management" on Friday, November 1, 2024, from 9 am to 4 pm. Hosted by Temple University Kornberg School of Dentistry.
If you are a healthcare professional interested in improving your clinical skills in recognizing, diagnosing, and managing oral mucosal disorders, I invite you to spend the day with me virtually.
This oral medicine continuing education is ideal for general dentists, specialist dentists, first-year oral medicine residents, dental hygienists, family practice, internal medicine, emergency room physicians, etc.

Course Description
Oral mucosal disorders encompass a wide variety of lesions with different etiologies. Some patients present with lesions with pathognomonic clinical characteristics, while others have similar clinical features, making them more challenging to diagnose. Using a problem-oriented as well as a case-based format, this course will review the etiologic factors, clinical presentations, differential diagnosis, diagnostic techniques, and therapeutic management of diverse oral mucosal and oral potentially malignant disorders.
