The pantographic reproducibility index (PRI) has been developed to quantitate incoordinated mandibular movements; one of the signs and symptoms of TMJ dysfunction. The PRI has been proven valid clinically in controlled research using more than 200 patients and scoring more than 2300 pantographic tracings during the past 10 years. The PRI can be used to determine (1) the presence or absence of TMJ dysfunction; (2) the success of treatment modalities such as occlusal splints, occlusal adjustments, and restorative treatments; (3) the prevalence of TMJ dysfunction; and (4) the level of TMJ dysfunction on experimental patients.
全景片再现性指数(PRI)已被开发用于量化下颌不协调运动,这是颞下颌关节紊乱功能障碍的体征和症状之一。在过去10年中,通过对200多名患者进行对照研究,并对2300多张全景片进行评分,PRI已在临床上被证明是有效的。PRI可用于确定:(1)颞下颌关节紊乱功能障碍的存在与否;(2)诸如咬合板、咬合调整和修复治疗等治疗方式的成功率;(3)颞下颌关节紊乱功能障碍的患病率;以及(4)实验患者颞下颌关节紊乱功能障碍的程度。
