The high prevalence of structural and functional lesions of the temporomandibular joints in adults, reaching 76 %, as well as the complexity of diagnosis and treatment of musculo-articular dysfunctions, determine the relevance of further research in this section of modern dentistry. Defects of the dentition in combination with distal occlusion are accompanied by structural and functional changes in the temporomandibular joint. The object of the study was 180 patients with dentition defects in combination with distal occlusion. As a result of the application of clinical and laboratory research methods, three variants of the temporomandibular joint were identified, the clinical and radiological features of the pathology studied were determined, and an algorithm for orthodontic and orthopedic treatment of this pathology was proposed depending on the selected temporomandibular joint.
