title: [Axiography in diagnosis and treatment of TMJ dysfunction].
abstract: The utility of the axiography is evaluated for studying temporomandibular joint dysfunctions. Condylar paths and the interpretation of the axiographic tracings are illustrated. The Authors report a case of a patient affected by TMJ dysfunction (unilateral closed lock) caused by dental malposition (inverse cross-bite of the left second molars). The axiography integrates and completes clinical analysis and roentgenographic examinations.
