“…The first 8 studies, including 4 prospective (Visscher et al, 12 Kasch et al, 13 Bergman et al, 14 Heise et al 1 ) and 4 retrospective studies (Carroll et al, 15 Ferrari et al, 2 Deboever et al, 16 Probert et al 17 ), indicate a low incidence or prevalence. A second group of 8 studies, including 4 prospective studies (Sale et al, 18 Haggman et al, 19 Garcia and Arrington, 20 Kronn 21 ) and 4 retrospective studies (Klobas et al, 22 Pullinger and Seligman 3 , Pullinger and Monteiro, 23 Weinberg and Lapoints 24 ), indicate a moderate to high incidence or prevalence. Table 2 lists studies on mechanism of injury, including design, methods, and results.…”

“…Twelve studies [19][20][21]24,[28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35] were identified (4 prospective and 8 retrospective studies) that focused on clinical findings and characteristics. Most the studies lend support to the correlation of whiplash and TMD, with some providing a comparison of pTMD to iTMD patients demonstrating significant differences.…”

Objective: The purpose of this article is to offer a narrative review and discuss the possible relationship between temporomandibular disorders (TMDs) and whiplash injuries. Methods: Databases from 1966 to present were searched including PubMed; Manual, Alternative, and Natural Therapy Index System; and Cumulative Index for Nursing and Allied Health Literature. Search terms used included whiplash injury, temporomandibular disorders and craniomandibular disorders. Inclusion criteria consisted of studies on orofacial pain of a musculoskeletal origin addressing the following topics: posttraumatic temporomandibular disorder (pTMD) incidence and prevalence, mechanism of injury, clinical findings and characteristics, prognosis (including psychologic factors). Excluded were studies of orofacial pain from nontraumatic origin, as well as nonmusculoskeletal causes including neurologic, vascular, neoplastic, or infectious disease. Results: Thirty-two studies describing the effects of whiplash on TMD were reviewed based on inclusion/exclusion criteria. The best evidence from prospective studies indicates a low to moderate incidence and prevalence. Only 3 studies addressed mechanism of injury theories. Most studies focusing on clinical findings and characteristics suggest significant differences when comparing pTMD to idiopathic/nontraumatic patients. Regarding prognosis, most studies suggest a significant difference when comparing pTMD to idiopathic/nontraumatic TMD patients, with pTMD having a poorer prognosis. Conclusions: There is conflicting evidence regarding the effects of whiplash on the development of TMD. Furthermore, because of lack of homogeneity in the study populations and lack of standardization of data collection procedures and outcomes measured, this review cannot conclusively resolve the controversies that exist concerning this relationship. This review of the literature is provided to clarify the issues and to provide useful clinical information for health care providers managing TMD such as doctors of chiropractic, physical therapists, dentists, and medical doctors.

Without realizing it, orthodontists may find themselves treating patients suffering from cranio-mandibular disorders, who may be adults, but not necessarily. Both young children and adolescents can also have these problems. Orthodontists often fall into the trap of not recognizing these disorders especially when the clinical signs are discreet or even non-existent. In order to save orthodontists from encountering unpleasant post-treatment surprises, we present in this paper a review of some of the indications of the etiology of craniomandibular dysfunction, how to diagnose it, and the importance of its major clinical signs that can be a great help to them in achieving a keener state of vigilance in this regard throughout orthodontic therapy.

This paper provides a critical review of past and current techniques for the computational modelling of diarthrodial joints. The objective of the paper is to describe strategies for addressing the computational modelling of joint mechanics using the finite element (FE) method, differentiating between geometry, constitutive modelling of the components, computational aspects and applications. The structure and function of the main components of the joints are reviewed, with emphasis on the relationship of tissue microstructure with its continuum mechanical behavior. Applications to two diarthrodial joints (human knee and temporomandibular joint) in physiological, pathological and pos-surgery situations are presented and discussed. The paper concludes with a discussion of future research directions.
