ANALYSIS OF JAW OPENING

Sažetak
Considering the fact that the occurrance of occlusal interferences and damages to mandible muscle elevator is directly related to posterior cross-bite, we chose an objective method for quantitative analysis. Two groups of patients were selected 10 individuals with unilateral cross-bite and 10 students without temporomandibular disorders(TMD)symptoms. By means of the Robert Jettkelson K5A kinesiograph we measured maximal opening velocity of the mandible (mm/s), maximal opening velocity (mm/s), and first tooth contact velocity. The following values were obtained:maximal opening velocity in the study group was 349 mm/s and 380 mm/s in the control group. This difference was incidental. The maximal closing velocity in the study group was incidental. The maximal closing velocity in the study group was 204.9 and 345.2 in the control group with p<0.05. The first tooth contact velocity in the study group was 75.93 and 325 in the control group with p<0.01.
