Popis: Background. Currently, the issues of diagnosis and treatment of patients with dentoalveolar injuries combined with temporomandibular joint disorders are highly relevant due to a progressive increase in the number of cases of this pathology among the population. Despite the availability of the comprehensive methodology in diagnostics of dentoalveolar injuries, dentists lack standardized algorithms for effective examination and systematization of the data obtained in the diagnostics of such groups of patients, which is necessary for personalized planning and pathogenetic therapy. The authors present the algorithm they developed for comprehensive assessment of dentoalveolar injuries in patients with temporomandibular joint disorders.Case descriptions. The paper presents clinical cases of two patients with abnormal occlusion associated with temporomandibular joint disorder. The patients underwent a comprehensive morphofunctional examination of the dentoalveolar complex in accordance with the diagnostic algorithm patented by the authors, including following methods: clinical (interview, examination), anthropometric (anthropometry of dentition), radiological (cone-beam computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging of the temporomandibular joint), functional (surface electromyography of the masticatory muscles, computer kinesiography, electro-vibrography, ultrasound examination of the temporomandibular joint), to make the final diagnosis and to determine the order and scope of treatment.Conclusion. The authors presented and proved clinically the algorithm of morphofunctional diagnostics for the dento-alveolar complex of patients with temporomandibular joint disorders, combining clinical, anthropometric, radiological and functional methods of examination, which allow the most dento-alveolar characteristics to be considered in order to make the main diagnosis and a personalized treatment protocol for such groups of patients
