Research Abstract |
We believe that tooth contacting habit(TCH) is a contributing factor in the temporomandibular disorders(TMD). The aims of this study were to develop of TCH recording system, investigate of the frequency of TCH, the relationship between TCH and TMD, and the effect of TCH correcting system. The patients with TMD and healthy controls were evaluated of TCH using the TCH Recording Systems, making use of the electronic-mailing(E-mail) function of cell phones. The frequency of TCH in the TMD patients was significantly higher than that in the controls. The result shows that the frequency of TCH to be approximately 5 times higher in the patients with temporomandibular disorders than in the controls.
