Abstract
To improve the results of diagnostics of anatomical structures in dentistry, a method such as cone-beam computed tomography is used, which provides extended visualization of the anatomical structures of the dental system and adjacent areas, including the cervical region, upper respiratory tract, etc. To improve the results of diagnostics of patients with diseases of the temporomandibular joints, an algorithm for analyzing a computer image of the cervicocranial region is proposed, which has diagnostic reproducibility, allows determining the asymmetry of the mutual arrangement of anatomical structures, detecting degenerative-dystrophic and other changes in the articulating surfaces. This method helps to identify the etiological factors in the development of diseases of the temporomandibular joints, increases the effectiveness of treating other diseases of the cervicocranial region.
