Incorporating modern technology into clinical diagnostic methods does not necessarily replace traditional methods, but ultimately represents an opportunity to improve patient care. Objective biophysiologic measurements (BPM) enhance both the information obtained from patient's report of symptoms, and observations made during a examination. It has been universally acknowledged that combining multiple tests enhances sensitivity specificity. Further, increase in objectivity process using quantifiable, measurement data, improves treatment progress monitoring outcome assessment, by reducing clinician's total dependence on feedback opinions. This chapter discusses several dental technologies are now readily available provide objective bio-physiologic masticatory function. Biophysiologic have potential detailed, analyses with increased Each is illustrated examples recorded asymptomatic control subjects, as well patients specific dysfunctions. The significance these instruments any dentist can use better understand their patients' conditions verify degree success after each rendered treatment. A recommendation provided medicine should accept computer indispensable part making accurate diagnosis, assessing quality results. An essential portion this addresses unfounded resistance differing technologies, especially amongst academia, which no longer inhibit widespread implementation. Importantly, studies suggest well-documented emotional symptoms (like depression, anxiety, catastrophizing, etc.) often associated Temporomandibular Disorders (TMD), most triggered physical pain structural disorders, rather than being themselves etiologic TMDs.
