Opis

TMJ forms an integral part of stomatognathic system. In the course of the past few decades the subject of TMJ disorders has gained increasing attention among dentists. Temporomandibular disorders is a collective term embracing number of clinical problems that involve the masticatory musculature, the TMJ or both & associated structures. Decision making in prosthetic dentistry & in the management of patients suffering from temporomandibular disorders is strongly influenced by the clinical & educational background of the dentist. The complex anatomy of the region compounded with the variability of symptoms involved, presents a challenging situation during management of temporomandibular disorders. The multi-factorial origin of TMJ dysfunctions has led to confusion about etiology & treatment. Diagnosis of Temporomandibular disorders have to be established from comprehensive evaluation of the patient. A clinical examination should not rely on one view of the patient. A practitioner should have a good concept of patient's condition from the medical & dental history & should use whatever diagnostic modalities available like radiographs computed tomography, MRI to verify.
