“…Treatment of TMD is basically odontologic and may involve anterior splints (Torii and Chiwata, 2010) occlusal splints, splints with posterior occlusal support, occlusal adjustment, removable therapeutic partial prostheses (Hotta et al, 1997), oral rehabilitation or orthodontic treatment, although therapeutic support regimens in the areas of psychology, phonoaudiology, and physical therapy may be associated depending on the needs of each patient (Hotta et al, 2003). Acupuncture (Cho and Whang, 2010;Hotta et al, 2010) and low level laser therapy (Mazzetto et al, 2010) have been used to treat limited mandibular movements and particularly painful symptoms of the masticatory muscles and temporomandibular joint.…”
