Sažetak
The aim of this study was to measure main variables influencing mandibular function-movements of mandible during chewing, speech and breathing. Measurements taken were: vertical and horizontal overlap of central incisives, side shift from centric relation (CR) to maximal intercuspation (MI) measured in the sagittal and frontal
plain, maximal mouth opening, maximal mouth opening using force, maximal dextrotrusion and sinistrotrusion. Method used included the same number of subjects and examiners. This was achieved by educating final year dental students before the measurement took place. They were both examiners and subjects for each other. Comparison of this method to single examiner and multiple
experienced examiner methods revealed no statistically different results. Measurements were divided by gender, dental status, and the number of signs and symptoms related to temporomandibular dysfunctions (TMD) that were then statistically analyzed. There were no significant differences between the results of this study and findings in current literature.
