The ADP consists of a multidisciplinary body of dental experts with a specific objective of diagnosing and suggesting treatment strategies for managing challenging cases and complications. This includes patients suffering from atypical facial pain, TMJ and myofascial syndromes, neuropathic pain secondary to dental interventions, and cases that do not respond to traditional treatment modalities.

The aims of the ADP are:

• To improve the quality of life of patients by developing a multidisciplinary diagnosis and remedial treatment strategy.
• To offer a point of reference when no other options are available.
• To educate the profession in managing challenging cases and complications.
• To provide independent expert advice to third-party groups.
