Cine-radiographic films of these joints in function demonstrate the speed with which the condyles move and it is obvious that proprioception and lubrication are properties which the joints possess in good measure. This is not the text for detailed descriptions of the joints but some of their features and significances will be mentioned and discussed. Since his paper in 1948 Sicher has taught and written about the tissues and functions of the mandibular joint to the benefit of the dental profession and has provided information, guidance and caution on deductions made from clinical observations.
Thus, if the force applied to elicit the knee or j a w tendon-jerk is applied slowly and forcefully the reflex response will be inhibited. It will be appreciated that these observations on neuromuscular function apply to skeletal muscle activity at all levels supplied by the 12 pairs of cranial nerves giving off the upper motoneurones and the 31 pairs of spinal nerves arising from the anterior horn cells and comprising the lower motoneurones. This activity is the result of sensory (afferent) impulses received by the cortex, brain-stem and spinal cord.
