Popis: The advent of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) have made the evaluation of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) far more definitive than the previous X-ray technologies. However, there is a large gap between what can be accomplished diagnostically in a clinical practice setting compared to utilizing these sophisticated imaging technologies. While the history and clinical examination procedures reveal important information, too often they are inadequate to arrive at even a tentative diagnosis of TMJ status. JVA tool is helpful for diagnosing joint pathology or abnormality by detecting the vibration between the joint surfaces. It is useful for diagnosis and educating patients during treatment.
