[Clinico-diagnostic evaluation of craniomandibular disorders]

Diagnostic setting of patients with craniomandibular disorders, imposes a careful valuation of the single components of the stomatognathic system (articular, occlusal, neuromuscular) to identify the etiologic factors which have led to the pathology. The Authors illustrate a clinic standardized procedure evaluating the different aspects and punctualizing the importance of the anamnestic investigation to define the psycho-emotional component of the patient. Only a careful clinic valuation permits a therapeutic programme to obtain a stable result without any relapse.
