Description
This totally new book is focused on answering a single broad question: What
is currently happening in various research areas that will be clinically applicable
to the management of temporomandibular disorders (TMDs) in the near future?
Clearly, much of the information discovered about musculoskeletal disorders
through the application of new research tools and innovative experimental designs
can be directly or indirectly applied to the TMJ.
However, many dental clinicians are unaware of this type of information because
it is presented mainly in medical publications or nonclinical scientific journals.
This book bridges the gap for the clinician, applying the latest scientific
research to the clinical treatment of TMDs, with focus on the anatomy, biochemistry,
neurophysiology, and psychology of the common disorders. Each chapter discusses
present knowledge in the particular field before explaining how it may apply
to the diagnosis and treatment of TMD patients. In addition, every chapter provides
an overview of new research in the field and its potential for changing future
patient care. Covering such clinically relevant topics as the relation of abnormal
joint function to joint pathology, the prediction of treatment responsiveness,
how sleep disorders affect TMJ and facial pain, the role of comorbid conditions
in pain response and management,
and the evolving field of pharmacotherapeutics, this book is sure to transform
the way clinicians think about TMDs and how they approach TMD treatment.
