Sintesi	Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) analysis is a systematic clinical assessment and imaging evaluation of the jaw joint, including the articular disc, condyle, and associated musculature. TMJ analysis evaluates joint function, detects dysfunction (TMD), and guides diagnosis and treatment planning for jaw pain, clicking, locking, and limited opening. Comprehensive assessment integrates clinical examination with imaging (magnetic resonance imaging, cone-beam computed tomography) to characterize joint status and tailor treatment.	Periodontal probing is a clinical assessment technique that measures the depth of gingival crevices and periodontal pockets to diagnose periodontal disease. Introduced by the American Academy of Periodontology in the mid-20th century, it remains the gold standard for assessing periodontal health status. The procedure evaluates the clinical attachment level and recession depth to identify inflammation, attachment loss, and disease progression.	Tooth mobility assessment is a clinical examination that evaluates the amount and direction of movement of a tooth when lateral force is applied. Increased tooth mobility indicates loss of periodontal support (bone loss), trauma from occlusion, or other pathology affecting tooth attachment. Systematic mobility grading enables quantification of tooth stability, guides treatment planning, and assesses prognosis in periodontal disease and post-traumatic cases.
