Occlusal interferences and temporomandibular dysfunction.
Disagreement exists regarding the relationship between occlusal interferences and temporomandibular joint dysfunction (TMD). This study sought to determine how a balanced occlusion, providing uniform contact in centric relation, would affect signs and symptoms of TMD. A randomly chosen group of 60 patients with occlusal interferences and signs and symptoms of TMD used a mandibular orthotic to b...
متن کاملThe Effect of Relaxation Exercises for the Masticator Muscles on Temporomandibular Joint Dysfunction (TMD)
[Purpose] The purpose of this study was to identify the influence of relaxation exercises for the masticator muscles on the limited ROM and pain of temporomandibular joint dysfunction (TMD). [Subjects and Methods] The subjects were 10 men and 31 women in their 20s and 30s. They were randomly divided into no treatment, active exercises and relaxation exercise for the masticator muscle groups. Th...
متن کاملTemporomandibular joint pain and dysfunction.
Pain caused by temporomandibular disorders originates from either muscular or articular conditions, or both. Distinguishing the precise source of the pain is a significant diagnostic challenge to clinicians, and effective management hinges on establishing a correct diagnosis. This paper examines terminology and regional anatomy as it pertains to functional and dysfunctional states of the tempor...
متن کاملArginase Promotes Skeletal Muscle Arteriolar Endothelial Dysfunction in Diabetic Rats
Endothelial dysfunction is a characteristic feature in diabetes that contributes to the development of vascular disease. Recently, arginase has been implicated in triggering endothelial dysfunction in diabetic patients and animals by competing with endothelial nitric oxide synthase for substrate l-arginine. While most studies have focused on the coronary circulation and large conduit blood vess...
متن کاملThe effect of a Lucia jig for 30 minutes on neuromuscular re-programming, in normal subjects.
The Lucia jig is a technique that promotes neuromuscular reprogramming of the masticatory system and allows the stabilization of the mandible without the interference of dental contacts, maintaining the mandible position in harmonic condition with the musculature in normal subjects or in patients with temporomandibular dysfunction (TMD). This study aimed to electromyographically analyze the act...
