- Summary:
- Manual of Temporomandibular Disorders is a four-color, softcover handbook of information on temporomandibular disorders, an array of medical and dental conditions that affect the temporomandibular joint (TMJ), masticatory muscles, and contiguous structures. The book will provide evidence-based, clinically practical information that allows dentists to diagnose TMD accurately, rule out disorders that mimic TMD (that is, make a differential diagnosis), and provide effective therapy for most patients. This title offers comprehensive coverage in a compact package. The book 's tone is conversational, with a focus on solving TMD problems at chairside. The author 's crisp, engaging writing style allows the clinician to find precise answers quickly, without wading through a morass of detail.
