[Experimental study of oral hyperactivity caused by mental stress, in particular by aggression].

18 patients without stomatognathic symptoms were examined by three psychological tests (Foto-Hand test, Freiburg personal inventory, and Giessen Test). Aggression had had the strongest effect upon masticatory muscles. Various other effects were studied, like ECG, respiration, pulse, tremor, skin resistance, masseter, biceps and triceps. Because of the visible effect upon the stomatognathic system it is plausible that disease in this organic system is to be expected at an early stage.

[The selection of a concept of occlusion].

The choice of a functionally and morphologically faultless concept of occlusion is of primary importance in crown and bridge prosthodontics. Generally speaking we can choose between two concepts:--the concept of harmonious occlusion--the gnathological concept of organic occlusion. A case study was used to illustrate in depth the range of application of these two concepts.

[Mistakes in planning and construction in crown-bridge-prostheses].

In the planning for crown and bridge prosthetics the harmonizing of function in the remaining dentition seems to be paramount. Occlusal interferences and their neuromuscular consequences may be eliminated by proper occlusal adjustments. Posterior retruded prematurities may function as traumatizing areas and may loosen anterior bridges. Such a case is presented.

[Studies on the personality structure of patients with myoarthropathy].

A group of test patients afflicted with myoarthropathy was compared by psychological tests to a control group and was shown to differ significantly in their personality. The differences: the group of patients shows a stronger disturbance of general psychosomatic behaviour. There is no evidence of open aggressivity, on the other hand the patients are irritable, easily disappointed and concerned and generally depressive. This picture is rounded off by the "typical female selfdescription" in Scale 12. The investigation shows that "primarily" somatic patients should be, in greater measure, considered from the aspect of psychohygiene or psychotherapy.

[The masticatory muscle synchronizer. Guided functional therapy of myoarthropathies of the tempors-mandibular joint].

In the myoarthropathies of the masticatory organ, psychic factors, often coupled with occlusal disturbances, have a trigger function. If the psychic factors prevail, the disturbances of the occlusion as etiologic factors diminish or are totally absent. In such patients, we often find fronto-lateral bruxism without any premature contacts in evidence. A guided functional therapy is introduced. With the so-called synchronator for masticatory muscles, a backfeed programming of the dysfunctional mandibular motion pattern is provoked into the normal neuromuscular harmony. This is done by obtaining centric relation and by blocking the fronto-lateral parafunctional pattern by rebuilding measures.
