Presentation title
Impact of occlusal changes on temporomandibular joint biomechanics: A review of current evidence.
Abstract
Occlusion and temporomandibular joint (TMJ) function have long been considered closely interconnected; however, the nature and extent of this relationship remain subjects of ongoing debate.By integrating current research and clinical perspectives, this presentation aims to provide participants with a balanced understanding of the relationship between occlusion and TMJ biomechanics and to support evidence-based decision-making in restorative, prosthodontic, orthodontic, and multidisciplinary patient care.
