The range of mandibular movements was studied on 600 randomly selected people. Mandibular mobility varied widely from subject to subject. There were considerable age and sex differences but no differences were found between the mobility values of persons who were functionally healthy and those with dysfunctions. These factors make it difficult to construct cutoff values that reflect normalcy in mandibular mobility and thus render the clinical utility of such values questionable. The use of age- and sex-corrected border values for mandibular mobility is proposed. The clinical utility of patients' opinions concerning mouth-opening capacity is stressed. On the basis of statistically significant differences, the use of different border values for the protrusive and laterotrusive movements seems to be necessary.
对600名随机选取的人进行了下颌运动范围的研究。下颌活动度在个体之间差异很大。存在显著的年龄和性别差异，但功能健康者与功能障碍者的活动度值之间未发现差异。这些因素使得难以构建反映下颌活动度正常情况的临界值，因此这类值的临床实用性存疑。建议使用经年龄和性别校正的下颌活动度边界值。强调了患者关于张口能力意见的临床实用性。基于统计学上的显著差异，对于前伸和侧方运动似乎有必要使用不同的边界值。
