Abstract
Occlusal disorders caused by missing teeth and without timely and proper treatment, lead to poorly diagnosed pathology of the masticatory muscles and the temporomandibular joint. Our study included 31 patients with dental defects, impaired canine guidance, and TMJ pathology. With a specifically developed computer program we accomplished the differentiation of various degrees of muscle and joint dysfunction in the temporomandibular joint. The results obtained by examining the patients prior to, and after the treatment, provide evidence to the effect that the modified occlusal splint has on the upper jaw.
