Stabiliza!on Modali!es for the TMJ/Myofascial
Pain Pa!ent
Stabilizing the TMJ/myofascial pain pa!ent requires
establishing and then maintaining a physiological
mandibular posi!on. In most cases, this three di
mensional posi!on is developed by reposi!oning the mandible
down and forward relieving pressure in the TMJ, and through pas
sive tension on the suspensory ligaments of the mandible, provides
for balance/health of the cranial sacral system. This presenta!on
will present the following:
1. Upper/lower arch development with soldered wire appliances,
in conjunc!on with a May Pivotal appliance.
2. Sequencing anterior/posterior teeth reconstruc!on.
3. Sequencing treatment for the denture pain pa!ent with severe
lost VD.
4. An overdenture case presenta!on of treatment for a pa!ent
with severe pathological mandibular posi!on with ul!mate
effects on gait and posture.
