H T Schrems

The temporo-mandibular joint situation was pantographically examined in class 1, class II and class III cases who had or had not been submitted to functional orthodontic therapy. The adaptation of the temporomandibular joint appears to be less complete in treated class II cases than in treated class III cases. The present investigation in 115 subjects also showed that pantography is a suitable means of analyzing the temporo-mandibular development in adolescents and the temporo-mandibular reaction to orthodontic measures.
