  • Title: Rationale for sequential use of both maxillary and mandibular orthopedic appliances in the treatment of TMJ disorders.
    Author: Taddey JJ.
    Journal: J Craniomandib Disord; 1990; 4(4):273-5. PubMed ID: 2098405.
    Abstract:
    This paper describes how the use of a combination of maxillary and mandibular orthopedic appliances by TMJ patients can reduce iatrogenic stress and improve patient compliance with 24-hour use. This combination provides the patient with a proper appliance for anterior repositioning when sleeping and eliminates the fear of iatrogenic tooth depression or movement.
