International Academy for TMJ and Orofacial Pain

About Us

IATOP was founded with a single purpose: to equip dental professionals with the knowledge, skills, and clinical confidence to diagnose and manage TMJ disorders and orofacial pain conditions effectively. Our fellowship program is built entirely on current scientific evidence and the latest clinical research from across the world, ensuring that every concept taught translates directly into better patient outcomes.


We believe that great education should be accessible. That is why our fellowship is designed to be flexible — with most learning delivered online, supported by hands-on practical sessions and guided by a world-class faculty of leading clinicians and researchers in the field. As a fellow of IATOP, you become part of a growing community of dental professionals held to the highest global standards of care.
Whether you are a general dentist looking to expand your scope of practice or a specialist seeking to deepen your expertise, IATOP offers a structured, rigorous, and rewarding pathway to becoming a confident practitioner in this growing and vital field.
