Understanding the etiology of temporomandibular disorders is
basic to successful management. Yet there is certainly much
controversy and debate in this field of study. In this
presentation, Dr. Okeson discusses the long standing debate
concerning the etiologic factors associated with TMD and
where occlusion may fit. Five etiologic factors are presented
for the clinician to consider. The concept of orthopedic
stability in the masticatory system is presented in detail as a
treatment goal for all dentists who plan to change a patient’s
occlusion. Past and present views of centric relation are
discussed and evaluated on an orthopedic level. This
presentation provides the clinician with the information
needed to successful restore the patient’s occlusion to sound
masticatory function.
