[Position of condyles in habitual and therapeutic occlusion]

One of the possible therapies of funcitonal disturbances in the masticatory system is finding a new intercondylar axis. The condyles perform a movement whose direction and length can be measured. All measuring results obtained from 51 patients are reported and in special cases the different methods of registration are compared. It was shown that in some cases the malposition of the condyles could not be eliminated.
