Gnathosonic monitoring of patients with gnathic dysfunctions.
The progress of 23 adult patients during treatment for gnathic dysfunctions was monitored by gnathosonic techniques and graphs of the fluctuations in occlusal sound duration were studied. It was concluded that this method gave a useful insight into the progress of patients under treatment and aided the assessment of the effects of treatment.
