Leaders in the fields of Temporomandibular Disorders (TMD) and its accompanying overlapping pain conditions presented their latest findings at the Seventh Scientific Meeting of The TMJ Association, September 7-9, 2014, in Bethesda, MD. The meeting was co-sponsored by The TMJ Association and the National Institutes of Health. Topics of the scientific sessions included epidemiology and diagnostic criteria, basic mechanisms of chronic pain including the genetic and epigenetic basis of chronic pain, and the development of novel drugs for treatment of these conditions. Discussions were directed toward formulating a set of recommendations to advance research in this field.
