Abstract
Temporomandibular disorders can arise apparently idiopathically, as a result of macro-trauma or micro-trauma such as parafunction, as a result of a separate disease process or as a consequence of dental treatment. The objectives of this chapter are to make the practitioner aware of his/her responsibilities in any of these situations. Precise record keeping and careful risk management are essential. Guidelines are given to protect not only the practitioner but also the patient.
