The 1st congress of ICCMO (International College of Cranio Mandibular Orthopedics) India Section and IDA (India Dental Association) Bangalore, was held at The Capitol Hotel, Bangalore on 25th and 26th August 2018. The event was inaugurated by the chief guest, Dr.Jayakar Shetty (Vice-President, Dental Council of India).
Dr. Rajesh Raveendranathan (President, ICCMO India Section) welcomed the 322 delegates and the 16 exhibitors to the event. The guest of honour, Dr.Ravindranath Mylat (CDE Chairman, IDA HO) inaugurated the trade fair.
Dr. Tatu Joy (First Vice-President, ICCMO India) briefed the audience about the conference. The other dignitaries on the dais, Dr. Girish Sharma(President, IDA Bangalore) and Dr. Tilakraj S felicitated the event. Dr. Girish. P. V (Second Vice-President, ICCMO India) delivered the vote of thanks.
The event marks the success of Neuromuscular Dentistry (NMD) in India after it was brought to India by ICCMO India’s pioneering President, Dr. Rajesh, in 2005. It’s the first time that a conference of this magnitude, in this specialty discipline of dentistry, is taking place in South Asia. An intellectually-talented-packed group of 9 international speakers (Dr. Curtis Westersund, Canada; Dr. Prabu Raman, USA; Dr. Fabio Savastano, Italy; Dr. Konstantin Ronkin, Russia; Dr. Patrick Girouard, Canada; Ms. Julia Worrall, Canada; Dr. Raj, Dr. Tatu Joy and Dr.Vikas Aggarwal – India) from all around the world enthralled the delegates, both Indian and international, with lectures and live demonstrations for 2 days. The Karnataka State Dental Council (KSDC) issued 12 credit points for the conference.
ICCMO is a worldwide non-profit organisation that helps in creating awareness among the doctors and the suffering patients of this newest science in dentistry. NMD help dentists treat teeth with a whole body approach, so as to maintain harmony among the teeth, jaw joint, muscles of the head and the neck and the airway. Any change in the position of the jaw, caused due to an error in the way we bite, will lead to a compromise in all of them. This leads to unresolved headaches, facial pain, migraine, neck aches, sleep apnoea, snoring and various other neuromuscular disorders and oro-facial pain. The patient suffers for years or even decades because it goes undiagnosed. ICCMO, through contact classes and awareness campaigns through media (both social and print), help achieve its main aim of spreading the word of NMD.
ICCMO India hopes to get NMD included in the syllabus of dental schools in India, so that every dentist understands this field and helps treat all those patients in pain.
