Calcifications of the disc of the temporomandibular joint

Journal of Oral Pathology & Medicine, 1999
Calcified lesions of the temporomandibular joint discs obtained from 135 human cadavers were studied. Calcifications were observed in 92 of 250 discs by soft x‐ray radiography. Studies by light and electron microscopy and x‐ray diffraction revealed that there were two different types of calcification in the discs: apatite crystal deposition with or ...

Ultrastructure of the bovine temporomandibular joint disc

Archives of Oral Biology, 1994
Electron micrographs of tissue samples taken from the peripheral zones of bovine temporomandibular joint discs showed a preponderance of thicker collagen fibrils (mean diameter 97.6 +/- 18.9 nm), occupying a greater portion of the extracellular matrix (49.7 +/- 4.6%) and more closely spaced (mean fibril separation 38 +/- 7.2 nm) than fibrils from the ...

Proteome Analysis of Temporomandibular Joint with Disc Displacement

Journal of Dental Research, 2022
Disc displacement without reduction is a common disorder of the temporomandibular joint, causing clinical symptoms and sometimes condylar degeneration. In some cases, bone regeneration is detected following disc-repositioning procedures. Until now, however, systems-wide knowledge of the protein levels for condylar outcome with disc position is still ...

The Effect of Removal of the Disc on the Friction in the Temporomandibular Joint

Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 2006
The amount of friction in the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is dependent on the joint components, including the synovial fluid, disc, and articular surface cartilage. As friction in the TMJ is less than in other (discless) joints, we hypothesized that this is caused by the presence of the disc.The frictional coefficient of the TMJ was first measured in

Dynamic Shear Properties of the Temporomandibular Joint Disc

Journal of Dental Research, 2003
Shear stress might be an important factor associated with fatigue failure and damage of the temporomandibular joint disc. Little information, however, is available on the dynamic behavior of the disc in shear. Since the disc is an anisotropic and viscoelastic structure, in the present study the dependency of the dynamic shear behavior on the direction ...
