Orofacial Pain (OFP) is the specialty of dentistry that encompasses the diagnosis, management and treatment of pain disorders of the jaw, mouth, face and associated regions. The specialty of OFP is dedicated to the evidenced-based understanding of the underlying pathophysiology, etiology, prevention, and treatment of these disorders and improving access to interdisciplinary patient care. These disorders as they relate to orofacial pain include but are not limited to temporomandibular muscle and joint (TMJ) disorders, jaw movement disorders, neuropathic and neurovascular pain disorders, headache, and sleep disorders.

    Coast to Coast – Episode 1: USC & UCLA Program Directors

    This episode is the first in a two-part Coast to Coast series, spotlighting CODA-accredited Orofacial Pain training programs across the country. Episode 1 focuses on the West Coast, where hosts Dr. Pratishtha Mishra and Dr. Jasjot Sahni speak with two program directors leading established OFP residencies: Dr. Maria Padilla from USC and Dr. Sherwin Arman from UCLA. They discuss their paths into Orofacial Pain, the structure of their programs, what day-to-day resident life looks like, and how mentorship and career development are supported. They also share insights on the growing overlap with sleep and headache medicine, along with advice for future specialists and for schools aiming to build OFP training. Whether you are a dental student, resident, or clinician seeking clarity on CODA-accredited Orofacial Pain programs, this episode offers a clear look at two respected West Coast training models and the directors guiding them.
