Abstract

The temporomandibular joint is a unique joint that can become damaged or dysfunctional as the result of many physiologic problems, including estrogen and vitamin deficiencies. Temporomandibular joint dysfunction can result in systemic symptoms that often appear unrelated, such as tinnitus, headaches, and motion sickness. The case study presented in this course shows how important the proper function of the temporomandibular joint is to quality of life. By paying close attention to our patients' chief complaints, we can aid in the timely diagnosis and treatment of temporomandibular joint dysfunction. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
