Articular Disc of a Human Temporomandibular Joint: Evaluation through Light Microscopy, Immunofluorescence and Scanning Electron Microscopy [PDF]

Journal of Functional Morphology and Kinesiology, 2021
The extracellular matrix of the articular disc in a temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is composed mainly of collagen I and elastin. The collagen is important for resisting tensile forces, while the elastin is responsible to maintain the shape after ...

Viscoelastic shear properties of porcine temporomandibular joint disc [PDF]

Orthodontics & Craniofacial Research, 2015
Structured AbstractObjectivesTo investigate the intrinsic viscoelastic shear properties in porcine TMJ discs.Materials and methodsTwelve fresh porcine TMJ discs from young adult pigs (6–8 months) were used. Cylindrical samples (5 mm diameter) with uniform thickness (~1.2 mm) were prepared from five regions of the TMJ disc.
