Производитель: "LAP Lambert Academic Publishing"

The Craniomandibular articulation (CMA) is a bicondylar articulation, with the mouth closed; the condyle is located in a centric position in glenoid fossae. Actually the morphology and function are intimately related. The loads to which the CMA is subjected vary according to the subjects dentofacial morphologies. Therefore it can be suggested that both the condyle and the mandibular fossae differ in morphology in subjects with various malocclusions. All difficulties of Craniomandibular articulation imaging might be eliminated by using computed tomography (CT), which allows precise visualization of anatomic details. Thus reliable data concerning morphology, irregularities and condyle-fossae relationship can be obtained. In this text book, we have presented a simple and reliable method of CMA imaging using CT. This text book is very useful for the student and clinician interested in the study of CMA in general and for the Dental and Orthodontics professional in particular. ISBN:9783659141980
