Use of the pivot appliance in the treatment of temporomandibular disorders.
This chapter describes the use of the pivot appliance in the treatment of temporomandibular joint disorders. The author explains the mechanism by which the pivot appliance acts by demonstrating radiographically the direction and extent of condylar movement while biting on a pivot appliance. The author also discusses indications for and fabrication of this orthotic.
