Descripción

Various social and dietary changes have gradually transformed the work of dentists, who now primarily focus on the treatment of dental caries and periodontal disease. This shift has particularly impacted orthodontists, who have increasingly recognized the importance of dental alignment treatments in conjunction with occlusion therapies. Aware of the growing need to address temporomandibular occlusion, Dr. Sadao Sato, a professor at Kanagawa Dental University in Japan, has authored this work to review everything related to the diagnosis and treatment of malocclusion through the use of condylography. In twenty chapters, supported by more than 500 images, Dr. Sato explains the structure and function of the cranio-mandibular system, mandibular positioning, the factors contributing to malocclusion, the risk factors of human malocclusion, condylography as a tool for functional analysis, the procedure for performing condylography, analysis tools, the disorders and symptoms of temporomandibular joint issues, the significance of the lateral displacement of the mandibular condyle, and presents a series of cases where temporomandibular joint disorders are evaluated and treated. Dentists in general, and orthodontists in particular, will find in this work a comprehensive guide to help evaluate temporomandibular disorders and, at the same time, define the optimal treatment for their patients.
