Abstract:
The presence of aural symptoms in patients with temporomandibular joint dysfunction has been known for a long time. Although many suggestions have been made as to their cause, none has yet proved adequate. In this article reports are given on four patients with temporomandibular joint dysfunction presenting with aural symptoms, the pertinent literature is reviewed, and a new theory of their causation is discussed.
