Abstract

Temporomandibular disorders(TMD) are limitation of jaw opening, pain and joint sound. The patients with TMD have received treatment of surgical and dental reconstruction. We concluded that the major causes of TMD are the prolonged contraction of the muscle mastication. The effect of acupuncture is relaxation of mastication muscle and control of pain. We treated 10 cases of the patients with TMD. We achieved effective results.
