The analysis of the mandibular range of motion (ROM) includes the evaluation of maximum opening, deviation upon opening, and amplitude of the left and right excursive movements and protrusion. Conventionally, ROM assessment has been directly measured in the patient's mouth by using a ROM ruler. The development of jaw tracking systems, such as magnetometry and photometric devices, allows the digital assessment of the mandibular ROM. The present manuscript describes the clinical protocols for recording and measuring the mandibular ROM by using different jaw tracking systems.
