The special examination of occlusion in the gnathological sense is less important for functional analysis in orthodontics and pedodontics. At the beginning of and during therapy, simple clinical examinations and observations provide the necessary diagnostic and prognostic information on the functioning of the individual parts of the masticatory system or their relation to each other. The clinical relevance of these findings was tested by electromyographic examinations, electronic pressure and volume measurements and tele- and cineradiographic tests. In the retention period, i.e. after therapy had been concluded, a gnathological examination was made in some cases in addition to the general functional analysis. The examination mainly centered on anatomic regions: lips, tongue, masticatory muscles, and temporomandibular joint. The following functions were examined: closing of the mouth, breathing, swallowing, speech, mandibular movements and the relation of rest position to habitual occlusion. In addition, general posture and habits like suckling and nibbling were studied.
从口腔功能学意义上讲，咬合的特殊检查对正畸学和儿童牙科学的功能分析不太重要。在治疗开始时和治疗过程中，简单的临床检查和观察就能提供有关咀嚼系统各个部分的功能或它们相互关系的必要诊断和预后信息。这些发现的临床相关性通过肌电图检查、电子压力和容积测量以及远距和电影放射摄影测试进行了验证。在保持期，即治疗结束后，除了进行一般功能分析外，在某些情况下还进行了口腔功能学检查。检查主要集中在解剖区域：嘴唇、舌头、咀嚼肌和颞下颌关节。检查了以下功能：闭嘴、呼吸、吞咽、言语、下颌运动以及休息位与习惯性咬合的关系。此外，还研究了一般姿势和习惯，如吮吸和啃咬。
