Stabilometry in the evaluation of the correlations between craniomandibular disorders and vestibular diseases
Keywords:
craniomandibular disorders, posture, rachis, stabilometry, balance disordersAbstract
We examined three groups:
- 29 patients suffering from balance disorders and craniomandibular disorders but not from vestibular disease;
- 21 patients suffering from balance disorders, craniomandibular disorders and vestibular disease;
- 26 patients suffering from craniomandibular disorders but not from vestibular disease or balance sorders.
All cases were examined by the odontologist and otoneurologist and tested by computerized stabilometry; they were reexamined after six months of therapy by an occlusal stabilization splint. The static analysis of the results shows a significative reduction of the postural oscillations in all patients.
