title: [The cerebrovascular manifestations of temporomandibular joint pain dysfunction].
abstract: Overall 37 patients with painful dysfunction of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ), characterized clinically by headaches and dizziness as well (25 persons) were examined. A study was made of REG. The responsiveness of the sinocarotid node (SCN) was recorded. Diverse changes in the REG readings that attested to the development of cerebral angiodystonia were recorded. Abnormal responsiveness of SCN was discovered. Skillful orthopedic correction of the spatial position of the mandible was associated with noticeable changes in the normalizing and optimizing character of numerous REG readings. These data together with optimization of the responsiveness of the SCN point to the role played by the irritative vascular mechanism in the pathogenesis of headaches and dizziness seen in TMJ dysfunction.
