| Popis: | Dysfunction of the temporomandibular joint has been studied in many epidemiological and follow-up studies, and it has been shown that temporomandibular joint dysfunction is a common complaint. This article describes the frequency of signs and symptoms of dysfunction of masticatory system four years after the treatment with fixed prosthesis. In addition, the effect of preprosthetic treatment has been related to the frequency of occlusal disturbances. The study consists of 147 subjects treated with fixed prosthesis whowere divided into two groups according to the preprosthetic treatment. Anamnestic symptoms and clinical signs were recorded more frequently in the group without any preprosthetic treatment than in the group with preprosthetictreatment. A statistically significant difference was found in the occlusal index (OiII) between pretreated and untreated patients. Thus, an improvement in the occlusal state was detected in subjects due to the treatment, although the occlusal grinding could not di... |
