Abstract
The purpose of this article is to dispel some of the major foibles associated with the etiology and management of TMJ disorders, while presenting some of the facts based on the scientific literature to date. To appreciate this kind of update, the reader must be an "out of the box thinker" which requires openness to new ways of seeing the world and a willingness to accept new concepts based on evolving evidence.
