This work is dedicated to a pressing issue in modern orthodontics: the prevalence and clinical features of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders. The aim of the study is to improve orthodontic rehabilitation methods for adult patients based on a comprehensive analysis of TMJ pathologies. As part of a prospective study, 144 patients were examined, of whom 28 individuals with confirmed dysfunctional disorders were included in the main group.
