This atlas provides dental practitioners with an illustrated multidisciplinary diagnostic approach to TMJ disorders and orofacial pain. Emphasizing the importance of the functional interaction between the tissue populations of the various stomatognathic structures, and the need for thorough functional analyses, Axel Buxman (U. of Southern California) and Ulrich Lotzmann (Philipps U.) discuss the anatomy of the masticatory system, manual functional analysis, imaging procedures, mounting of casts and occlusal analysis, instrumented analysis of jaw movements, diagnoses and classifications, and principles of treatments. Illustrated with color and b&w images and drawings. Oversize: 9.5x12.75". Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
