The etiology and treatment of temporomandibular joint dysfunction are well documented in the literature, with conflicting views being expressed. Little information is available, however, regarding the efficacy of treatment of such a condition when viewed in a longitudinal context. This investigation is a progress report dealing with a retrospective analysis of 367 patients with temporomandibular joint dysfunction. Most of the patients had dental problems and responded to therapy. The therapy was carried out with the knowledge that any change in the occlusal contact relation can influence the neuromuscular system by altering the patterns of sensory input. The results, which are based on clinical findings, indicate that functional occlusal therapy led to elimination of temporomandibular joint dysfunction.
