Abstract
The aim of this research was to investigate the acoustic characteristics of clicking sound.
In this article, Peak Sound Pressure Level (PSPL) and Mean Power Frequency (MPF) were studied, and the relation of both parameters was investigated. The subjects were 6 patients with unilateral reciprocal clicking caused by anterior displacement of the disc with reduction. The results were as follows.
1. The mean values of PSPL ranged 78.2dB-103.2dB.
2. The mean values of MPF ranged 428Hz-758Hz.
3. According as PSPL increased, MPF shifted higher range in 4 of the 6 subjects.
