Objective: To systematize and review available scientific research data over twenty years regarding systems and methods for recording lower jaw movements.
Materials and Methods: A literature search was conducted on the PubMed service. Publications up to 2024 were considered. The primary filter in the search system was used to select publications based on the following criteria: metaanalysis, review, systematic review. Only publications in English were selected for the initial data set. The primary search yielded 45 publications. After a detailed analysis of the selected publications, 35 publications that best met the needs were retained for further processing. Additionally, 3 publications from other services that addressed the topic were added manually. Thus, the total number of publications used for the analysis amounted to 37 articles.
Results: The analysis of lower jaw movements provides the clinician with important parameters for evaluating the function of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ). These parameters are crucial for modeling the normal functioning of the masticatory apparatus. Therefore, in-depth knowledge of lower jaw movements is necessary for dentists of various profiles, especially prosthodontists and orthodontists. Familiarity with various methods used to measure lower jaw movements is key in clinical analysis. The hardware for recording lower jaw movements has evolved significantly from purely mechanical methods to modern electronic systems with multi-functional software, ensuring high-level functional rehabilitation of the dentoalveolar system.
Keywords: lower jaw, temporomandibular joint, function, registration of lower jaw movements, hardware.
