Biofeedback training involves electromyographic recording of the patient's level of facial muscle tension with concurrent presentation of that level to the patient in a visual or auditory manner. The objective of biofeedback training in patients with temporomandibular joint dysfunction is to provide them with an insight into abnormal facial muscle activities, which include clenching and grinding of the teeth and lip- and cheek-biting habits. This insight coupled with relaxation programs affords the patient an opportunity to eliminate abnormal behavior patterns that foster temporomandibular joint symptomatology.
生物反馈训练包括通过肌电图记录患者面部肌肉紧张程度，并以视觉或听觉方式将该程度同时呈现给患者。颞下颌关节功能障碍患者的生物反馈训练目的是让他们了解异常的面部肌肉活动，包括咬牙、磨牙以及咬嘴唇和脸颊的习惯。这种认知与放松训练相结合，为患者提供了一个消除导致颞下颌关节症状的异常行为模式的机会。
