TMJ in our Focus

The TMJ is increasingly in the focus of dentistry. In addition, many internet sites report more and more details about

this particular topic – drawing the patient ́s attention on noises, clicks and realistic or unrealistic possible solutions.

The patients often expect a treatment effect in the sense of a „restitutio ad integrum“ – a restitution of the state

before the TMJ alteration. This is often unrealistic, and requires a careful and precise medical information, but also

systematic and controlled procedures.

In these 4 days of the seminar, the participants will learn all physiological and pathological aspects of the TMJ, furt-

hermore the essential diagnostic procedures including the Condylogram and MRI, also the treatment indica-

tions, the therapeutical principles and strategies and finally the scientific background in form of a literature overview.
