Wilson曲线与颞下颌关节紊乱病的相关性研究进展

摘要

The etiology of temporomandibular disorders has not been fully elucidated, whose causes are mainly from many aspects such as occlusal factors,socio-psychosocial factors,anatomical factors,immune factors and joint overload. The occlusal factors, as a kind of factors affecting the temporomandibular joint disorders,play a pushing role in the occurrence and development of temporoman-dibular joint disorders. The curve of occlusion,as the representative,plays an important role in the pathogenesis of TMD. The occlu-sion,temporomandibular joint and masticatory muscles constitute the core of oral masticatory system,which interrelate with and influ-ence each other.%颞下颌关节紊乱病(TMD)的病因目前尚未完全阐明,病因主要来自牙合因素、社会心理因素、解剖因素、免疫因素以及关节负荷过重等多个方面.牙合因素作为颞下颌关节紊乱病中的影响因素,在颞下颌关节紊乱病的发生及发展过程中起到了推动性的作用.牙合曲线作为牙合因素中代表因素的一种,在TMD的发病机理中占有重要的地位.牙合、颞下颌关节与咀嚼肌共同构成口颌咀嚼系统的核心,三者相互联系,互相影响.
