Anatomical anomaly of temporo-madiblar joint and its dysfunction is becoming one of the important problem in dentistry because the number of these cases are increasing rapidly. Applying 'Lateral Transcranial Technic', 'Updegrave method' and 'Denar Accuard 100' to skull and adult with normal occlusion the author obtained following results: 1. Grewcock method combied with cephalostat as one of 'Lateral Transcranial Technic' revealed clear picture but the image of condyle head was tend to incline downward. 2. Direction of central radiation in 'Updegrave method' should be 2 recommended inch upward from auditorial mearus. 3. For functional analysis and correct diagnosis 'Denar Accuard 100' should be highly recommended.
