Manual of Temporomandibular Disorders, 4th Edition, provides evidence-based guidance for diagnosing and managing conditions affecting the temporomandibular joint, masticatory muscles, and contiguous structures.
Practical coverage outlines initial clinical evaluation, acute presentations such as disc displacement and joint luxation, and occlusal appliance therapy. The manual also details multidisciplinary care pathways, including physical medicine modalities, pharmacological therapies, and cognitive-behavioral interventions.
Designed for general dentists, dental students, and residents, the text features clinical case scenarios, callout boxes, and a companion website providing patient handouts and practical examples.
