Comparison of particular parameters of kinesiologic and dental examination in patients with symptomatic temporomandibular joint disorders
Mičánková, Kateřina ; Šedý, Jiří (advisor) ; Kachlík, David (referee)
This thesis focuses on the comparison of results of dental and kinesiological examination, medical history, PHQ-4 questionnaires and X-rays between a group with symptoms of temporomandibular disorder and an asymptomatic group. The theoretical part summarizes anatomy and kinesiology of the temporomandibular joint and also epidemiology, etiology, symptomatology, classification, examination and treatment of temporomandibular disorders. The main goal was to compare differences between the two groups in muscle tenderness or pain on palpation, range of active depression of the mandible and active dorsiflexion of the cervical spine. Methods: A total of 30 patients were included in the study, out of which 18 were in the symptomatic group (mean age 44.8, SD ± 11.6 years) and 12 in the control group (mean age 36.9, SD ± 13.9 years). The participants underwent a clinical examination, which consisted of thorough collection of medical history, dental and kinesiological examination and X-rays (anteroposterior, lateral, panoramic), the participant also filled in the PHQ-4 questionnaire. Results: Muscle tenderness or pain on palpation in the symptomatic group was significant (p = 0.019). There was not a significant difference in depression of the mandible between the groups (p = 0.26). Range of active dorsiflexion...

Physiotherapy of functional disorders of the orofacial area in wind instrument players
Havlíčková, Lucie ; Maršáková, Kateřina (advisor) ; Malá, Jitka (referee)
Title: Physiotherapy of functional disorders of the orofacial area in wind instrument players Objective: The areas of interest of this diploma thesis are temporomandibular joint (TMJ), wind instrument playing and health problems affecting the orofacial area related to playing of the wind instruments. The aim of this diploma thesis was to determine the current functional state of the orofacial area in wind instrument players and to evaluate the effectiveness of the chosen type of physical therapy. Methods: This experiment-centered pilot study included a total of 21 wind instrument players aged 15-30. After taking anamnestic data, the subjects underwent kinesiological examination focused on the orofacial area. To evaluate the results, a visual analog pain scale (VAS) and examination of the active range of motion of TMJ using a millimeter ruler were used. If the proband experienced any TMJ pain, had a reduced active range of TMJ, or both of the previous, the patient was prescribed an one month autotherapy targeted on the orofacial area. Once the therapy was finished, the probands underwent the second orofacial examination. Horn's procedure, Wilcoxon's test and Microsoft Excel 2021, were used to analyze the collected data. Results: During the initial kinesiological examination, 38 % of the woodwind...
