[Influence of condylar position and translation movement in the development of temporomandibular dysfunction].

In this work we have examined a population of symptomatic patients (group A, B, C) for troubles to the TMJ and we analyzed the sagittal relation condyle-fossa using the cephalometric analysis on latero-lateral radiograms: we have compared the results with those obtained from a population of asymptomatic TMJ people. We have observed a great variability in the position of the condyle as to the glenoid fossa: we have not noted any significant statistically difference in the middle position of the condyle between the considered groups and the controlled group.

[The centric relation. IV. Variations in condylar positions according to the methods of measuring centric relation and to the patient's clinical type].

When recording and transferring centric relation onto an articulator errors can be minimized by proper use of dental materials. Remaining errors may be due to either the patient or the clinician. 3 recording techniques (Lucia, Dawson, Ramfjord) are being tested by 2 operators on 12 patients. In order to get a proper centric relation one must not rely upon a technique of taking it but rather on an adequate clinical evaluation of the TMJ at that moment. The role of inadequate intermaxillary relationship upon painful TMJ syndroms cannot be underestimate.
