The following functional and dynamic factors were evaluated: (1) masticatory function; (2) remodelling of the TMJ or condylar pathway (CP); and (3) lateral movement of the jaw or lateral guide (LG). The CPs were assessed using conventional axiography and LG was assessed by using kinesiograph tracing ([https://www.myotronics.com/ Myotronics Inc., Kent, WA, US]) Seventeen (71%) of the 24 (100%) patients consistently showed a side of habitual chewing side. The mean and standard deviation of the CP angles was 47.90 <math>\pm</math> 9.24) degrees. The average of LG angles was 42.95<math>\pm</math>11.78 degrees. Data collection emerged from the conception of a new TMD paradigm in which the affected side could be the usual chewing side, the side where the mandibular lateral kinematic angle Wass flatter. This parameter may also be compatible with the dental claim. | | }}</ref> evaluated 24 adult patients suffering from severe chronic unilateral pain diagnosed as Temporomandibular Disorders (TMDs).
