|
This is the third series of article on dental occlusion and relationship to TMD and systemic symptoms. In this part of
the series, it will overview the theory, treatment methods, criteria, their limitation of Chirodontics, Dental Distress Syndrome
(DDS) and quadrant theorem(QT). Chirodontics has its root on Chiropractic and to maintain the ?healthy status? of TMJ
with stable occlusion via dental treatment. Dental distress syndrome on the other hand believes that all the TMD has
originated from reduced or collapse of posterior support and incorrect posterior vertical support had caused imbalance of
the head and neck structure which eventually affect the whole body symptoms. The analysis and treatment is planned using quadrant theorem where the position of head, rotatory pivot point and occlusal plane is analyzed.
