Abstract
One of the most current problems of modern dentistry is the functional pathology of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ), caused by a malfunction of the masticatory muscles. Most clinicians agree on the need for programmed coordination of the work of the masticatory muscles and the relative position of the TMJ elements in order to determine the true central ratio which will be the starting point for the design of therapeutic occlusal splints. As part of the study, the possibilities of deprogrammatization techniques used in the diagnosis and treatment of functional pathology of TMJ were studied.

Summary
PROGRAMMED COORDINATED WORK OF THE CHEWING MUSCLES AND THE LOWER JAW’S POSITION IN THE TREATMENT OF PATIENTS WITH THE FUNCTIONAL PATHOLOGY OF THE TEMPOROMANDIBULAR JOINT. One of the most current problems of modern dentistry is the functional pathology of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ), caused by a malfunction of the masticatory muscles. Часто причиной дисфункции ВНЧС является вынужденное положение нижней челюсти при смыкании зубов за счет ее смещения по отношению к верхней челюсти на фоне патологии окклюзии, а также некорректного предшествующего протезирования или ортодонтического лечения [2].
