🌐 MCB Seminar (Seoul)

A global first in Orthodontics & Invisalign — redefining diagnosis and treatment with the MCB method.
 

  • MCB/T (Teeth): normalizes cranial movement on tooth contact; 3D cranial correction; restores whole-body balance.
  • MCB/L (Low): slightly higher than MCB/T; mainly for sleep; prevents clenching/grinding distortion; helps correct facial roll/pitch.
     
  • Revolutionary diagnosis: X-rays in MCB/T position replace conventional lateral cephs.
     
  • Vertical dimension: palpation-based diagnosis captures individual skeletal traits in real time.
     
  • Occlusal force (MCB/T X-rays): forces should disperse via maxillary first molars; posterior → TMJ overload; anterior → anterior problems.

 Cranial Balancing Dentistry

Cranial Balancing Dentistry is a clinical discipline that focuses on restoring the three-dimensional balance of the cranial bones and their functional relationship with the mandible, occlusion, and the entire musculoskeletal system.
Unlike traditional neuromuscular dentistry, which primarily evaluates muscle activity and mandibular position, Cranial Balancing Dentistry recognizes the cranium as the primary driver of functional occlusion and overall postural stability.

At the core of this concept is the understanding that the cranial bones—particularly the sphenoid, temporal, maxillary, and occipital bones—are not fixed structures. Subtle restrictions or asymmetries within these bones can alter mandibular trajectory, distort occlusal contact patterns, and create compensatory postural changes throughout the body.

The MCB Splint (Mandibular Cranial Balancing Splint) is a therapeutic system designed to facilitate simultaneous movement of the cranial bones toward a more symmetrical and physiologic position. When balanced cranial motion is restored, the mandible naturally seats into a more stable three-dimensional position, improving both occlusion and systemic function.
Patients frequently experience improvements not only in dental alignment, but also in chronic symptoms such as headaches, neck tension, nasal airway restriction, and long-standing musculoskeletal discomfort.

Cranial Balancing Dentistry integrates principles from craniofacial orthopedics, functional occlusion, and modern orthodontics. By guiding the cranium, mandible, and dentition back into harmony, it provides a comprehensive approach to long-term functional and structural health—far beyond the scope of traditional bite-based or muscle-based dentistry.

 MCB Can Change Your Life — Both Mentally and Physically

The MCB Splint is more than just a dental device.
It restores balance to your cranial bones, body, and mind.
When your body becomes symmetrical and your breathing improves,
your energy, posture, and even emotions begin to change.
Experience how MCB brings harmony between the body and brain
and discover a new, healthier version of yourself.

In the traditional C.R. (Centric Relation) position, treatment focuses on placing the condyle in a mechanically stable joint position.
However, in the MCB position, the cranial bones — including the temporal and sphenoid bones — move freely toward balance.

The MCB splint is more than a dental device.
It restores balance to your cranial bones, body, and mind.
When your body becomes symmetrical and your breathing improves,
your energy, posture, and even emotions begin to change.

Experience how MCB brings harmony between the body and brain —
and discover a new, healthier version of yourself.

The misalignment of the lower jaw causes the body to twist further. When the lower jaw is misaligned left or right, the sphenoid bone becomes distorted, causing the shoulders to hunch forward, and the body to bend forward. If the lower jaw is misaligned front or back, the temporal bones become more twisted, the right shoulder moves backward, and the pelvis twists to the left, affecting even the internal organs. If the height of the molars when biting is misaligned, the occipital bone becomes distorted, causing the body to twist to the right. This results in misalignment throughout all the muscles of the body.

1. Misconception of immovable temporal bones
It assumes the temporal bones do not move and attempts to achieve orthopedic stability by aligning the mandible to the already distorted temporal bones.
In many cases, if mandibular changes are too severe after wearing the C.R. splint, orthodontic treatment becomes impossible and double jaw surgery is performed.

For example, in one patient diagnosed and planned at the MCB/T position, mid-treatment photographs at 6 months showed the right temporal bone had moved upward.
Improvement of cranial asymmetry also improved septal deviation, creating a wider airway.

But when the mandible is placed in the MCB position — a condition where the temporal and other cranial bones are free to move — all cranial bones, including the temporal bones, shift in the opposite direction of the distortion.

2. When asymmetry improves, the size and shape of the face changes.

3. Scientific validation / EEG
In 2019, I published a paper in the International Journal of Orthodontics (IJO) comparing brain waves between the C.R. splint, ARS splint, and MCB splint. There are cases where brain waves stabilized solely with the MCB splint after meningioma surgery, and videos on Facebook also show changes in Parkinson’s patients in the MCB position. To date, no study has been published on brain wave changes in patients treated with the C.R. splint group.

3-1. EEG
These maps visualize band-wise relative power, asymmetry, and connectivity (coherence/phase) z-scores over the scalp.

Green generally indicates z near 0, red indicates excess, and blue indicates deficit.

MCB splint—eyes open shows more uniform green with reduced frontal/temporal beta–high-beta excess.

C.R/ARS retain red clusters over frontal/temporal or parietal regions, suggesting residual hyperarousal or sensorimotor imbalance.

MCB splint—eyes closed approaches the expected posterior alpha dominance with lower overall deviation.

Asymmetry maps tend to show smaller left–right differences with MCB and more focal asymmetries with C.R/ARS.

Connectivity graphs under MCB display fewer hyper-coherent links, consistent with a more economical network.

Overall, MCB splint trends toward reduced desynchrony/hyperarousal, improved hemispheric balance, and more efficient connectivity.

No splint made anywhere has the same effectiveness as the current MCB splint.

3-2. EEG
This is case where brain waves stabilized solely with the MCB splint after meningioma surgery

4. In the MCB position, it has been proven on CBCT that the previously distorted cranial bones move into proper balance and alignment.

LSB (Left Side Bending) This refers to cases where the left sphenoid and occipital bones drop downward while the maxilla shifts upward on the left side.
Through 3D CBCT superimposition, it has been demonstrated that in the MCB position, the downward-shifted sphenoid and occipital bones move upward, while the elevated maxilla shifts downward. If any of the six doctors here encounter similar cases, they will be able to detect them by palpation.

5. When the mandible moves into the MCB position, positional changes occur in the condyle and temporal bone, leading to bone regeneration and repositioning into a uniform joint space.

5-1. When the mandible moves into the MCB position, positional changes occur in the condyle and temporal bone.
Even in the absence of the disc, bone regeneration has occurred in the MCB position.

6. In the MCB position, the nasal septum straightens, making breathing easier

6-1. In the MCB position, the nasal septum straightens, making breathing easier.

After 6 months of Invisalign treatment, it is possible for the lower jaw to move. This is because not only the temporal bone moves, but all the cranial bones move, making the movement of the lower jaw possible.
As the cranial distortion improves, the deviation of the nasal septum decreases, making nasal breathing possible.

6-2. In the MCB position, the nasal septum straightens, making breathing easier.

This is a before-and-after comparison on CBCT. The red line shows how the nasal septum has changed from its previous shape.

7. Anteroposterior changes of the maxilla and mandible are possible.

In the MCB position, the maxilla and mandible move in opposite directions in pitch. In most cases, the upper and lower jaws are in a state of backward rotation due to underdevelopment.
However, when placed in the MCB position, they immediately shift into anterior rotation. I will demonstrate this during the practical session. This is the result of the movements of the sphenoid and temporal bones.


7-1. Anteroposterior changes of the maxilla and mandible are possible.

When the lower jaw moves forward, if MCB splint treatment causes the temporal bone to rotate backward, the lower jaw will move backward.

7-2. Anteroposterior changes of the maxilla and mandible are possible.

When the lower jaw moves forward, if MCB splint treatment causes the temporal bone to rotate backward, the lower jaw will move backward.

7-3. Anteroposterior changes of the maxilla and mandible are possible.

If the mandible has been retruded after jaw surgery(2021.6) due to bone inflammation, MCB splint therapy can bring it forward. Even in cases without a disc, new bone has formed on the mandibular condyle, and with the anterior rotation of the temporal bone, the mandible has moved forward.

7-4. Anteroposterior changes of the maxilla and mandible are possible.

Even in the absence of the disc, bone regeneration has occurred in the
MCB position.

7-5 The forward rotation of the upper and lower jaws has reduced the gum exposure of the upper jaw.

8. When in the MCB position, eye misalignment and vision improve. During the practical session, I will demonstrate palpation of eye movements.

9. When in the MCB position, wrinkles are reduced because all the muscles are lifted upward.

10. In the MCB position, blood flow increases.

You can feel changes in the pulse when the teeth are apart, when they are in contact, and when in the MCB position.

11. When in the MCB position, if distortions in other areas are minimal, the misalignment of the cervical spine improves.

12. In the MCB position, spinal misalignment improves. Even in cases where surgery has been performed for scoliosis, the vertebrae move toward balance.

13. The cranial distortion is severe and the three-dimensional position of the mandible is greatly misaligned, you will need a cane sooner than others.

14. The MCB position affects the autonomic nervous system and causes changes in HRV.

15.The MCB position leads to an overall increase in respiration.

16. In the MCB position, body misalignment improves, which leads to changes in the leg and feet.

17. The MCB/L used during sleep functions as an aligner chewie during clear aligner treatment, while simultaneously guiding the fitting of all teeth and improving cranial and body asymmetry.

18. When diagnosis and treatment planning are done based on the MCB position, simply wearing the Invisalign aligners helps realign the twisted face and body. The use of elastics enhances the results, and combining treatment with the MCB splint leads to even faster recovery.

👉 MCB splint.
The patient from Canada started MCB splint treatment on September 18 and received a total of 167 sessions over 14 days
👉 He sent the following treatment review.
Results after 167MCB sessions:
* Overall, I recovered to 70% from 166 MCB sessions done in only 1 month!
* I’m now even more stable, less brain fog and chronic fatigue is gone for the most part.
* My nasal airways unclogged to 90 % after about 160 sessions which gave me a huge spike of energy through my whole body, both mentally and physically.
* My upper body pain (face, neck, shoulders, traps) significantly decreased to a point where I can sleep comfortably and execute most of my daily tasks.
* The stiffness/cramps in my hands also decreased and I can now hold things more easily.
* My lower body pains (right hip, stiffness in legs, cramps in feet) also decreased.
* My digestion improved and stomach pain decreased.
* My teeth sensitivities are back to normal, and my scalp too. My light sensitivity is also better, and my excess saliva decreased.
* My front profile is better at the maxillary lvl, my gummy smile is almost gone, and my openmouth posture is better too.
* I will come back to Korea to get back to 100% soon and do Invisalign to fix my side profile and position of the teeth ☺

 

Do you feel that your face looks long?

The previously long-looking face has become slightly wider, and increased blood circulation in the parietal region has led to new hair growth.

In the third photo, the eyes appear slightly larger. This is because, in most cases, when the distortion around the eyes decreases, the eyes naturally become wider and more open.

From left to right, the smile becomes more balanced and natural. In the first photo, the right corner of the mouth is higher, and the facial muscles are uneven, showing asymmetry between the right and left sides. In the second photo, the difference between both sides decreases, and the eye and mouth lines become more parallel.

In the third photo, the smile line is almost horizontal, and the overall facial balance, including the eyes, cheeks, and jawline, appears much more symmetrical and relaxed, indicating improved cranial and muscular harmony.

In the third photo, gum exposure has decreased because both the maxilla and mandible have rotated forward in the same direction as the sphenoid and temporal bones. This synchronized anterior rotation reduced the upward tilt of the upper jaw, resulting in much less gum exposure.

In the smiling photos, the wrinkles on the forehead and around the eyes have disappeared. This is because the MCB splint lifts all sagging facial muscles upward. The eyes have also become slightly larger. When the asymmetry around the eyes is corrected, the eyes become more balanced and appear bigger and brighter.

In the smiling photos, the skin tone appears brighter and more even. The improvement in cranial alignment and facial muscle balance enhances blood and lymph circulation, which gives the skin a healthier, more vibrant color. This balanced tone reflects increased oxygenation and reduced muscular tension in the face.

The nasolabial folds have become much smoother and less visible. This improvement is due to the MCB splint lifting the midfacial muscles upward and restoring balanced support from the maxilla and zygomatic bones. As a result, facial tension decreases and the smile appears more natural and youthful.

As seen in the previous facial photos, increased blood circulation in the face has resulted in fuller and thicker hair growth.

From left to right, facial temperature balance improves significantly. In the first image, the central area of the face, especially the nose, appears cooler (green), indicating restricted blood flow or asymmetrical cranial balance.

In the second image, the temperature difference begins to decrease, showing better vascular flow through the midface.

In the third image, the entire face becomes uniformly warm (red), demonstrating improved circulation and cranial symmetry, especially around the sphenoid and maxillary regions.

When comparing the infrared images with the facial photos, it is noticeable that hair growth has occurred. This suggests improved blood circulation and metabolic activity in the scalp area, likely related to better cranial alignment and restored vascular flow around the temporal and parietal regions.

From left to right, both the heel alignment and plantar pressure distribution show clear improvement.

In the first image, the calcaneus tilts inward and the foot pressure is concentrated medially, indicating imbalance.

As the images progress, the heels become more vertical and centered, and the contact area on the soles becomes more even.

In the last image, the foot pressure is evenly distributed from heel to forefoot, showing improved postural balance and alignment of the lower limbs.

Do you feel that your face looks large?

6-month mid-treatment Invisalign photo.

The reason why changes appear in the face after only six months is that this treatment is different from conventional Invisalign.
By wearing Invisalign appliances that are diagnosed and planned with the MCB Splint concept, the twisted face and body begin to move in the opposite direction of the distortion.
When elastics are worn, the changes occur more quickly, and when MCB splint therapy is combined, the transformation happens even faster.

6-month mid-treatment Invisalign photo

For the mandible to move to the right, corresponding changes must occur in the connected temporal bone.
In the left photo, the height of the right temporal bone (red line) has moved upward in the right photo after six months.
For the temporal bone to move, all the other distorted facial bones must also move together.
When these facial bones regain balance, the distorted body also realigns, and the previous discomfort begins to improve.

As facial symmetry is restored, some long-standing symptoms may temporarily reappear and disappear repeatedly,
but over time, chronic conditions improve and the body regains a healthier state.

When the facial bones return to balance, the deviated nasal septum straightens,
expanding the airway.
This change occurs naturally, without surgical tissue removal,
preserving the original structure while allowing deep-level adjustment —
leading to much more comfortable breathing.

If your lower jaw remains distorted, the nasal septum will also stay deviated,
and eventually, you will breathe through your mouth during sleep —
losing overall body balance and vitality.

This photo was taken after aligning the vertical distance between the pupils and the lips,
showing that the width of the face has already become narrower.

This patient developed a square jaw (square face) due to teeth clenching, bruxism, and masseter muscle tension.
Even without tooth contact, the mandibular angle area begins to flare outward after about three seconds;
when the teeth are brought into occlusion, the square jaw appearance occurs within one second.

However, when wearing the MCB/H balancing splint (MCB/H Splint),
the mandible begins to return inward within just one second.
As the mandible rotates and moves posteriorly, the occlusal vertical dimension decreases,
which is why most patients tend to experience bruxism or clenching.

In such cases, the conventional treatment method is mandibular angle reduction surgery (square jaw surgery).
However, even after surgery, since the occlusal vertical dimension remains insufficient,
the problems of clenching and bruxism often persist.

When Invisalign treatment and MCB splint therapy are performed simultaneously
at the MCB position—the physiological balance point where the mandible and cranium are harmonized—
the distorted face and body gradually return to a state of equilibrium.

Before, as indicated in the red circle, it looked like there were two condyle. After nine months of using the MCB device, in the image we can clearly see that it looks like one condyle. Also, as indicated in the yellow circle, we can see the difference between the unbalance of each sides of the lower jaw has been more balanced. On the other hand, the image of the cervial which is the green circle has been less crooked.
 
The shape and texture of the lower jaw’s condyle has changed including the color of it being more brighter. This means the condyle is well positioned in the right place therefore, the texture will become a lot more harder. This is because the weirdly positioned disc had went back to its right position which leads to the increase of blood supply that passes through the disc which eventually adds in bone. As mentioned earlier, the image above is an image of a patient who had made a customized MCB device (patent pending in five countries) after making a dental model and used the MCB device only when sleeping for 9 months.

※ Why MCB splint is needed for orthodontic treatment.

1. It protects teeth and jaw joint from clenching or bruxism at bedtime (MCB/L)
2. It stimulates good movement and motility of the skull even at bedtime, because the whole body is relaxed by reducing harmful stimuli so that you can take a deep sleep. (MCB/L)
3. It is a device used at bedtime and during the day and it increases the movement and motility of the skull, enabling rapid treatment of the bodily symptoms.
4. When using MARPE, it increases the mobility of the skull and enables the bilateral expansion of the maxilla. Therefore, asymmetric facial treatment can be performed.
5. When using MARPE, it is easy to move to the front of the maxilla by increasing the mobility of the skull.
6. When using MARPE, it is easy to correct the roll yaw of the maxilla by increasing the mobility of the skull.
7. When two jaw surgery is required, it can be used in conjunction with MARPE/ALF to simplify double jaw surgery by securing a balanced position for non-operative areas such as sphenoid bone, temporal bone, occipital bone, parietal bone, frontal bone, cheekbones, etc.
8. It reduces working and balancing interference by aligning the left and right centers of the upper and lower jaws and teeth.
9. It reduces protrusion interference by aligning the center of the upper and lower jaw and the anteroposterior center of the teeth.
10. By aligning the upper and lower jaw and the left and right centers of the teeth, the occlusal force can be transmitted to the long axis of the teeth in the molar area.
11. Orthodontic treatment is a means of holistic treatment to treat the whole body out of the aesthetic tooth arrangement.
12. Orthodontic treatment can improve brain function.
13. It helps maintain a younger-looking face by reducing facial wrinkles and increasing skin elasticity during orthodontic treatment.
14. It is possible to change the position of the temporal bone and the lower jaw so that the fundamental jaw joint treatment is possible.
15. Orthodontic treatment can treat internal organ problems caused by brain nerve problems due to changes in normal motility of the skull.
16. After the end of orthodontic treatment, the skull can be occluded in the three-dimensional position of the lower jaw that normalizes the skull, so every time the teeth are occluded, the skull bones show good movement.
17. It prolongs one’s lifespan by normalizing the vagus nerve of the person working with the head bent (ex. dentist).
18. During orthodontic treatment, it is possible to prevent the phenomenon of the twist of the sphenoid bone, the upper and lower jaw, and if a twist occurred in the previous orthodontic treatment, it can be restored to the previous one.
19. Orthodontists become TOP DOCTOR because they can treat systemic problems such as dystonia, scoliosis, neuralgia, twisted body posture, allergies, and autonomic nervous system dysfunction.



Her face shape changed from a deformed shape to a small, balanced egg-like shape, the height of her left and right eyes also changed, and the temperature of her head and eyes changed to normal red color. This means that blood circulation has improved.

 This difference changed even though she lived in the province and her MCB treatments were 20% of her recommended treatments due to coronavirus.
 
Remenber!!! The face can be twisted(MARPE) or it can be turned back by MARPE and MCB splint.

Abstract
Purpose: Temporomandibular disorders are a common musculoskeletal condition causing severe pain, physical and psychological disability. The effect and evidence of osteopathic manipulative treatment and osteopathy in the cranial field is scarce and their use are controversial. The purpose of this pilot study was to evaluate the effectiveness of osteopathic manipulative treatment and osteopathy in the cranial field in temporomandibular disorders.

Methods: A randomized clinical trial in patients with temporomandibular disorders was performed. Forty female subjects with long-term temporomandibular disorders (>3 months) were included. At enrollment, subjects were randomly assigned into two groups: (1) osteopathic manipulative treatment group (20 female patients) and (2) osteopathy in the cranial field group (20 female patients). Examination was performed at baseline (E0) and at the end of the last treatment (E1), consisting of subjective pain intensity with the Visual Analog Scale, Helkimo Index and SF-36 Health Survey. Subjects had five treatments, once a week. 36 subjects completed the study (33.7 ± 10.3 y).

Results: Patients in both groups showed significant reduction in Visual Analog Scale score (osteopathic manipulative treatment group: p = 0.001; osteopathy in the cranial field group: p< 0.001), Helkimo Index (osteopathic manipulative treatment group: p = 0.02; osteopathy in the cranial field group: p = 0.003) and a significant improvement in the SF-36 Health Survey - subscale "Bodily Pain" (osteopathic manipulative treatment group: p = 0.04; osteopathy in the cranial field group: p = 0.007) after five treatments (E1). All subjects (n = 36) also showed significant improvements in the above named parameters after five treatments (E1): Visual Analog Scale score (p< 0.001), Helkimo Index (p< 0.001), SF-36 Health Survey - subscale "Bodily Pain" (p = 0.001). The differences between the two groups were not statistically significant for any of the three target parameters.

Conclusion: Both therapeutic modalities had similar clinical results. The findings of this pilot trial support the use of osteopathic manipulative treatment and osteopathy in the cranial field as an effective treatment modality in patients with temporomandibular disorders. The positive results in both treatment groups should encourage further research on osteopathic manipulative treatment and osteopathy in the cranial field and support the importance of an interdisciplinary collaboration in patients with temporomandibular disorders. Implications for rehabilitation Temporomandibular disorders are the second most prevalent musculoskeletal condition with a negative impact on physical and psychological factors. There are a variety of options to treat temporomandibular disorders. This pilot study demonstrates the reduction of pain, the improvement of temporomandibular joint dysfunction and the positive impact on quality of life after osteopathic manipulative treatment and osteopathy in the cranial field. Our findings support the use of osteopathic manipulative treatment and osteopathy in the cranial field and should encourage further research on osteopathic manipulative treatment and osteopathy in the cranial field in patients with temporomandibular disorders. Rehabilitation experts should consider osteopathic manipulative treatment and osteopathy in the cranial field as a beneficial treatment option for temporomandibular disorders.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to analyze the immediate effect of resilient splints through surface electromyography testing and to compare the findings with the electromyographic profiles of asymptomatic subjects. The participants were 30 subjects, 15 patients with TMD (TMD Group) and 15 healthy subjects (Control Group), classified according to Research Diagnostic Criteria (RDC/TMD) Axis I. A resilient occlusal splint was made for each patient in the TMD Group from two mm thick silicon to cover all teeth. The EMG examination was performed before and immediately after installing the splint. Three tests were performed as follows: 1. Maximum Voluntary Contraction (MVC) using cotton rolls (standards test); 2. MVC in maximal intercuspation position; and 3. MVC with the splint in position. The EMG signal was recorded for five seconds. EMG indices were calculated to assess muscle symmetry, jaw torque, and impact. There was a statistically significant difference when comparing the results among the study groups. The symmetry index values in the Control Group were higher than the TMD Initial Group and similar to the TMD Group after the installation of the splint. The index values of torque were higher in TMD Initial Group when compared with the Controls. Impact values were lower than normal values in the TMD Initial Group and restored upon installation of the splint. The resilient occlusal splints may be used as complementary or adjunctive treatment of temporomandibular disorders.

Abstract
In this study, the authors investigated the link between jaw clenching/bruxism and temporal bone movement associated with multiple sclerosis (MS). Twenty-one subjects participated in this study (10 patients with MS and 11 controls). To quantify the change in intracranial dimension between the endocranial surfaces of the temporal bones during jaw clenching, an ultrasonic pulsed phase locked loop (PPLL) device was used. A sustained jaw clenching force of 100 lbs was used to measure the mean change in acoustic pathlength (delta L) as the measure of intracranial distance. In the control subjects the mean delta L was 0.27 mm +/- 0.24. In subjects with MS the mean delta L was 1.71 mm +/- 1.18 (p<0.001). The increase in magnitude of bi-temporal bone intracranial expansion was approximately six times greater in subjects with MS compared to controls. Therefore, jaw clenching/bruxism is associated with more marked displacement of the temporal bones and expansion of the cranial cavity in patients with MS than in control subjects.

Abstract
Occlusal splints are a common and effective therapy for temporomandibular joint disorder. Latest hypotheses on the impact of occlusal splints suggest an altered cerebral control on the occlusion movements after using a splint. However, the impact of using a splint during chewing on its cerebral representation is quite unknown. We used functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to investigate brain activities during occlusal function in centric occlusion on natural teeth or on occlusal splints in fifteen healthy subjects. Comparisons between conditions revealed an increased activation for the bilateral occlusion without a splint in bilateral primary and secondary sensorimotor areas, the putamen, inferior parietal and prefrontal cortex (left dorsal and bilateral orbital) and anterior insular. In contrast, using a splint increased activation in the bilateral prefrontal lobe (bilateral BA 10), bilateral temporo-parietal (BA 39), occipital and cerebellar hemispheres. An additionally applied individually based evaluation of representation sites in regions of interest demonstrated that the somatotopic representation for both conditions in the pre- and postcentral gyri did not significantly differ. Furthermore, this analysis confirmed the decreasing effect of the splint on bilateral primary and secondary motor and somatosensory cortical activation. In contrast to the decreasing effect on sensorimotor areas, an increased level of activity in the fronto-parieto-occipital and cerebellar network might be associated with the therapeutic effect of occlusal splints.




 
Touch—More Than a Basic Science

Abstract
The potency of touch in osteopathic manipulative treatment (OMT) is physically realized within the musculoskeletal, immune, nervous, and endocrine systems. Psychologically, touch supports a verbal and tactile interaction that is both diagnostic and therapeutic. Touch is a 2-way street that adds meaning and depth to the patient-physician experience. The relationship between touching and being touched offers a potentially powerful and intense deepening of the patient-physician relationship that emerges within the palpatory examination and treatment. Empathic communication, through word or deed, allows a therapeutic, synchronized healing to occur. In the present article, the authors provide a rationale to sensitize and invigorate osteopathic physicians to routinely evaluate and treat patients using their skillful touch.

 Figure 1.
The musculoskeletal, immune, nervous, and endocrine (MINE) systems interact in response to low-threshold mechanical stimulation, which is perceived as touch, and to nociceptive input, which is perceived as pain. Dysregulation in the MINE systems, expressed through the musculoskeletal system as somatic dysfunction, can be diagnosed during palpatory examination.

Abstract
Objectives
To evaluate three‐dimensional (3D) craniofacial changes induced by a non‐surgical tooth‐bone‐borne rapid palatal expander (TBB‐RPE) according to the symmetrical pattern of expansion, to investigate the 3D changes between the sides in patients with asymmetric expansion, and to identify the related factors of asymmetric expansion.

Setting and sample population
Sixty‐six patients (mean age: 19.3 ± 5.7 years) treated with TBB‐RPE were divided into a symmetric expansion group (Group S, n = 46) or asymmetric expansion group (Group A, n = 20). Group S was subdivided into Group Ss (n = 27), with bilateral frontomaxillary suture (FMS) split, and Group Sn (n = 19), with no FMS split.

Materials and methods
Pre‐ and post‐expansion cone‐beam computed tomography images were superimposed, and the common coordinated system was set. All landmarks were designated as coordinate pairs, and treatment changes were automatically calculated. Analysis of variance was conducted for intergroup comparison of craniofacial changes, and logistic regression analysis was performed to identify the related factors of asymmetric expansion.

Results
The frequency of asymmetric expansion was 30.3%. Group A with unilateral FMS split showed less craniofacial changes than Group Ss and more changes than Group Sn. Group A exhibited different nasomaxillary displacement between the two halves, showing greater changes in the FMS‐split side. Among the tested six variables (age, gender, Angle's classification, unilateral crossbite, maxillary cant and chin deviation), chin deviation was uniquely associated with asymmetric expansion.

Conclusions
Tooth‐bone‐borne rapid palatal expander had a risk of asymmetric expansion, especially in facial asymmetric patients with chin deviation, producing different craniofacial changes from symmetric expansion.

Abstract
Introduction/objective: The purpose of this study was to assess whether condylar position, as depicted by magnetic resonance imaging, was an indicator of disc morphology and position.

Methods and material: One hundred and twenty two TMJs of 61 patients with temporomandibular joint disorder were examined. Condylar position, disc deformity and degree of anterior disc displacement were evaluated by using magnetic resonance imaging.

Results and discussion: Posterior condyle position was found to be the main feature of temporomandibular joints with slight and moderate anterior disc displacement. No statistical significance was found between the condylar position, and reducing and nonreducing disc positions. On the other hand, superior disc position was found to be statistically significant for centric condylar position.

Conclusion: It was concluded that posterior condyle position could indicate anterior disc displacement whereas there was no relation between the position of condyle and the disc deformity.
