[Evaluation of the efficiency of the method of biological feedback in complex therapy of patients with hypertonus of the chewing muscles].

Unlabelled: The aim the study. Evaluate the effectiveness of biofeedback therapy in the complex rehabilitation of masticatory muscle hypertonicity in patients with a high level of anxiety.

Material And Methods: The study included 40 patients aged 20 to 32 years with complaints of fatigue and discomfort in the area of chewing muscles, teeth compression during the day, nocturnal bruxism, crowding of teeth.

[The impact of masticatory muscles hypertonicity on the bite formation].

The Aim Of The Study: Was to assess the impact of masticatory muscles hypertonicity on the bite formation.

Materials And Methods: The study comprised 60 patients aged 7-14 years. Group 1 consisted of 20 individuals with Angle class 1 occlusion without masticatory muscle hypertonicity.

Application of additional anthropometric and functional methods in children undergoing orthodontic treatment using braces.

Background: Occlusal interference causes instability in temporomandibular joint and hyperactivity of mastication muscles which eventually leads to temporomandibular joint dysfunction. Therefore, achieving stable occlusion is important in young patients. It is key factor in optimizing functional occlusion in adulthood.

[Protocol of cone beam computed tomography analysis for patients with craniomandibular dysfunction].

The article presents a detailed protocol of cone beam computed tomography (CBCT), which includes not only the classic analysis of dentoalveolar and skeletal disorders, but diagnosis of cranial patterns (craniocervical cephalometric analysis by M. Rocabado, cephalometric diagnosis by Sassouni PLUS), analysis of transverse jaw sizes (Penn analysis) and measuring the volume of the airway for screening of obstructive sleep apnea. The literature review was conducted using the PubMed in the Scopus and Medline electronic databases through April 2020.

[Clinical and diagnostic rationale for the final stage of orthodontic treatment].

The aim of the study was to improve the efficiency of the final stage of orthodontic treatment. The study included 32 patients divided into two groups of 16. Orthodontic treatment was performed using a bracket system active self-ligation straight arc technique with step adjustment anthropometric quantitative evaluation system (The ABO Model Grading System).
