Abstract
In case of malocclusion, along with clinical diagnosis, radiographic techniques are needed due to the complex anatomy and pathology. Therefore, it is of interest to evaluate the relation between OP using T-SCAN and TMD. We have included 60 patients that were divided in group A & B in equal parts. Here group patients were clinically diagnosed patients and group B as control group, respectively. We found that, only protrusion and right canine had high significant difference between the 2 groups. Thus, we show that the relation can be best indicated using new technologies like T-scan. Furthermore large prospective studies over long period are required for more definitive and confirmatory result.
