This fourth edition text presents step-by-step guidelines for patient diagnosis and treatment as well as providing the foundation for the concept of occlusion and how it affects the temoromandibular joint. Its four parts correspond logically to the four-year dental curriculum, leading readers through explanations of jaw anatomy and function; tooth morphology; diagnosis, treatment and management of TMJ disorders; and the physical exam. Case reports accompany each major treatment chapter to make treatment principles more relevant to student and practitionar alike.
