[Functional analysis in orthodontics and pedodontics].

E Witt

    Deutsche Zahnarztliche Zeitschrift
    |February 1, 1977
    PubMed
    Summary

    Simple clinical assessments are sufficient for orthodontic and pedodontic functional analysis, providing key diagnostic insights into the masticatory system. Advanced gnathological examinations are less critical during and after treatment.

    Area of Science:

    • Dentistry
    • Orthodontics
    • Pedodontics

    Context:

    • Traditional gnathological examination of occlusion holds limited importance for functional analysis in orthodontics and pedodontics.
    • Simple clinical examinations and observations are sufficient for diagnostic and prognostic information regarding the masticatory system's function.

    Purpose:

    • To evaluate the diagnostic and prognostic value of simple clinical examinations versus specialized gnathological assessments in orthodontics and pedodontics.
    • To determine the clinical relevance of functional analysis findings through electromyographic, pressure, volume, and radiographic tests.

    Summary:

    • Clinical relevance of functional analysis was validated using electromyographic, pressure, volume, and radiographic tests.
    • Post-treatment (retention period) assessments included general functional analysis and, in some cases, gnathological examination.
    • Examinations focused on anatomical regions (lips, tongue, masticatory muscles, temporomandibular joint) and functions (mouth closing, breathing, swallowing, speech, mandibular movements, rest position vs. habitual occlusion), alongside posture and habits (suckling, nibbling).

    Impact:

    • Highlights the efficacy of basic clinical assessments in orthodontics and pedodontics, potentially streamlining diagnostic processes.
    • Provides evidence supporting the use of simpler diagnostic methods for evaluating the masticatory system's function and patient outcomes.
