Cone Beam CT Evaluation of the Bony Changes in the Temporomandibular Joint and the Association with the Clinical Symptoms of Temporomandibular Joint Disorders

Introduction: Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders are among the most prevalent abnormalities of the jaw, which affect the masticatory system, including the muscles, TMJ, and tendons. Clinical examination alone cannot determine the cause of temporomandibular disorder (TMD). In most cases, the cause of TMD and a proper treatment plan are determined based on imaging modalities. The present stu...

Characteristics of temporomandibular joint in patients with temporomandibular joint complaint.

INTRODUCTION This study was to investigate whether there was statistical difference between the bilateral temporomandibular joint (TMJ) in patients with unilateral TMJ pain or joint sounds, using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT). METHODS TMJ CBCT images of 123 cases were used to preliminarily determine the indicators suitable for the measuring method. TMJ CBCT image reconstruction was per...

falls into the third category of CMC patients. However , longitudinal studies by Valdimarsson et al.4 suggest that some patients may move between Types III and IV and that these two groups could belong to a spectrum, the position of the patient within this spectrum being determined by factors such as fungal virulence or antigenic load. The management of patients with CMC involves both the ident...
