A Study on the Relation Between Stomatognathic System and the Systemic Condition

IV-2. The Influence of Craniomandibular Disorder on Auditory Brainstem Response

Abstract

The results obtained were as follows:
1) The peak latencies of wave I. III and V for patients with craniomandibular disorder were longer than longer than those for normal subjects.
2) The patients with craniomandibular disorder had larger right-left differences in the latencies. These results indicate that craniomadibular disorder may influence not only the stomatognathic system but also the auditory system and the brainstem.
