This paper raises new questions about the relationship between occlusion and periodontics. Specifically, it raises questions about the effect of periodontal diseases on mechanoreceptors in the periodontal ligament. Periodontal mechanoreceptors transmit information from the periodontium to various reflexes coordinated by the central nervous system. One of these reflexes is the trigemino-neck reflex. Its function is to change the position of the head, neck, and jaws on a moment-to-moment basis, and it powerfully influences the occlusal position. This paper raises questions about the consequences of periodontal diseases on all reflexes that depend on periodontal mechanoreceptors, and specific questions are raised about the effect of periodontal disease on the trigemino-neck reflex because of its extreme importance to the way we analyze and treat occlusion.
本文提出了关于咬合与牙周病学之间关系的新问题。具体而言，它提出了关于牙周疾病对牙周膜中机械感受器影响的问题。牙周机械感受器将来自牙周组织的信息传递给由中枢神经系统协调的各种反射。这些反射之一是三叉神经 - 颈部反射。其功能是随时改变头部、颈部和颌骨的位置，并且它对咬合位置有强大影响。本文提出了关于牙周疾病对所有依赖牙周机械感受器的反射的后果的问题，并且由于其对我们分析和治疗咬合方式的极端重要性，还提出了关于牙周疾病对三叉神经 - 颈部反射影响的具体问题。
