Day 1 : Understanding Function


09:00–09:30 | Introduction 
Course objectives 
  • The role of jaw kinematics in modern TMJ diagnosis 
  • From understanding movement to clinical decision-making 

09:30–10:30 | Why Condylography? 
What condylar trajectories reveal about: 
  • Occlusal stability 
  • Muscular dysfunction 
  • Internal joint derangements 
  • Diagnostic value beyond traditional examination 
  • TMJ Anatomy : Disc–condyle–capsule complex, muscle 

10:30–11:15 | Range of Motion (ROM) 
  • Analysis Incisal point analysis 
  • Posselt envelope 
  • Farrar diagram interpretation 
  • Using ROM to validate diagnostic hypotheses 

11:15–12:30 | Modjaw for TMJ Diagnosis (Part 1) 
  • Centric relation as a reference 
  • Hinge Point Indicator (HPI) 
  • JPS module for joint decompression and recoaptation 

12:30–13:30 | Lunch Break  

13:30–14:30 | Modjaw for TMJ Diagnosis (Part 2) 
  • Graph superimposition 
  • Measurement of condylar amplitudes 
  • CBCT segmentation and integration 

14:30–16:30 | Workshop 

16:30–17:30 | Discussion & Q&A 

20:00 | Evening dinner in Lyon
