Three-year clinical comparison of three amalgam alloy types emphasizing an appraisal of the evaluation methods used.

Five different evaluation techniques were used to measure the marginal breakdown of three-year-old amalgam restorations. The most useful method appeared to be one in which photographs of all restorations were ranked in descending order starting with the restoration that had the least marginal breakdown and ending with the restoration that had the greatest deterioration. Three different alloys were evaluated and the results confirm those of previous studies; the alloy having the lowest creep was superior whereas restorations placed with the alloy having the highest creep displayed the greatest marginal breakdown.

Treatment of temporomandibular joint syndrome with biofeedback training.

Treatment of temporomandibular joint syndrome by the use of biofeedback training involves two stages. First, the patient is made aware of the level of tension in the masseter muscle and, second, he is taught to reduce the level of tension. In those individuals whose pain most likely is associated with high muscle tension, this treatment method is apparently successful. The successful treatment of a patient with a history of long-term TMJ pain is described.
