Abstract : [Introduction] The assessment technology for functional occlusion suitable for use in clinical orthodontics is very important to allow the orthodontist to reference diagnostic data from a position of neuromuscular and temporomandibular joint normalcy. As tooth contact occurs, the mandible, out of its physiological position in relation to the skull forces the structure to function under distress, often causes an internal derangement of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) associated with pain to the head and neck along with problems of mandibular functional movement. The ultimate responsibility of the orthodontist is to treat all of the components of the stomatognathic system to create an environment for synergistic function of the dentition, TMJ and neuromuscular system. Orthodontists must expand their vision to include a comprehensive view of the functional relationship of the mandible to the skull and the dynamic relationship of the cranial bones with each other. In the past, technological limitations have restricted the orthodontist to a diagnostic protocol using only diagnostic casts and cephalometric analysis referenced to the existing intercuspal position of the mandible.
