Temporomandibular Disorders
Research and more information
The National Institute of Dental Research supports an active research program on TMD. Developing reliable guidelines for diagnosing these disorders is a top priority. Studies are also under way on the causes, treatments, and prevention of TMD. Through continued research, pieces of the TMD puzzle are falling slowly but steadily into place.
A Technology Assessment Conference on Management of Temporomandibular Disorders was held at the National Institutes of Health in spring 1996. Free copies of the summary statement from the TMD conference are available from:
