I have just completed my most recent CPD course with the SCCO This one was Module 8 - The Functional Face. There are a lot of bones in the face, making up the most complicated jigsaw ever!! They all move and interrelate with each other in their own specific way. We looked at how they accommodate from impacts and injuries and how they work to dissipate forces around the face and through the bony structures to protect the vital organs within.
We looked at how the orbit, which consists of the meeting points of 7 bones, allows for protection, function and drainage of the eye; How the ear and its structures are supported and drained, with attention on the eustacian tube; The mandible and temporomandibular joint (jaw); The mouth and infant feeding problems such as tongue-tie.
