Description and Table of Contents

Description

Whilst many textbooks have been produced on the subject of pain and dysfunction of the temporomandibular joint and masticatory musculature, most are of interest only to specialist research workers. Undergraduates and dental practitioners have few readable textbooks which explain the aetiology, diagnosis and treatment of TMJ dysfunction in relatively simple terms. This book aims to meet that need. Temporomandibular Joint Dysfunction: the essentials, provides a succinct and synoptic introduction to a complex subject and should prove an extremely worthwhile purchase not only for the dental undergraduate and postgraduate student but also for the practitioner, who should find it a handy reference source. 'This little book gives an invaluable overview of TMD suitable for undergraduates and postgraduates; it also provides useful advice to dentists wishing to treat these patients.' - British Dental Journal, June 1995 'What an excellent little book. And what good value. The authors are to be< br/>congratulated in exactly fulfilling their brief to provide the essentials of this complex subject in a way that is easily digestible by both students and general practitioners.' -
