The Stomatognathic System as an Integral Part of the Postural System

A holistic view of human body increasingly demands that the stomatognathic system be considered an integral part of the postural system.
The planning of prosthetic and/or orthodontic occlusal rehabilitation must include an analysis of the functional parts that represent the dynamic point of union between the stomatognathic system and the body as a whole. This book offers an opportunity to revisit and refine clinical knowledge through new interpretations and discoveries, covering the postural system, primary respiratory mechanics, applied kinesiology, the stomatognathic system, the diagnosis and treatment of sphenobasilar synchondrosis, and peripheral receptors such as the "podalic receptor".
Applied kinesiology, osteopathy and posturology are treated from a perspective that will interest the orthodontist, since normal and pathological occlusion (malocclusion) are part of a general syndromic picture.
