Abstract/Notes

Narrative: The comprehensive chiropractic TMJ examination must include the mandible’s motion by the muscles of mastication, the dental occlusion, the joints including its articulating disc, and their effects upon the motor nerves of the body. TMJ dysfunction can be caused or perpetuated by disturbance in any of the links in the closed kinematic chain of the ‘stomatognathic system’. The muscle organisation within the chain is examined in chiropractic applied kinesiology by having jaw motion evaluated in opening, closing, lateral sway and teeth clenching during manual muscle testing of related muscles. It may also be evaluated with swallowing, talking, and with the head in different positions. Three differing chiropractic and dental treatments in two cases of TMD (temporomandibular disorders) are compared in this case series review.
