Objectives
The objectives of this course aim to provide skills to students within the following themes:
- The importance of occlusion and temporomandibular joint in dentistry;
- The importance of the muscles of cranio-cervico-mandibular complex in the diagnosis and treatment of orofacial and temporomandibular joint syndromes;
- The relationship between prematurity and occlusal interference with muscles painful to palpation;
- The details of the temporomandibular joint fundamental to the diagnosis and treatment of pain syndromes/temporomandibular dysfunction;
- Mandibular kinematics and the importance of these movements in the etiology, diagnosis and therapy of pain syndromes/temporomandibular dysfunction;
- Understanding the PROTAR System as an aid to diagnosis.

Teaching methods and learning activities
Teaching is divided into lectures and theoretical-practical classes.. The lectures are interactive and fundamentally seek to exposure of matter contained in the "syllabus", with the collaboration of students. A visual means will also be used for a better understanding of issues.
The theoretical-practical classes have for objective the consolidation of subjects taught in lectures to clinical and laboratory level (study and practice of the articulators and use of axiography).
