Consequences of Viscoelastic Behavior in the Human Temporomandibular Joint Disc

Journal of Dental Research, 2007
The consequences of the viscoelastic behavior of the temporomandibular joint disc were analyzed in simulated jaw open-close cycles. It was hypothesized that viscoelasticity helps protect the underlying bone, while augmenting the smoothness of articular movements.

Microstructural, Micromechanical Atlas of the Temporomandibular Joint Disc

Journal of Dental Research
The temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disc is mainly composed of collagen, with its arrangement responding to efficient stress distribution. However, microstructural and micromechanical transformations of the TMJ disc under resting, functional, and pathological conditions remain unclear.

The disc of the human temporomandibular joint: Design, function and failure

American Journal of Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics, 1985
SummaryThe directions and limits of mandibular movements are controlled by muscles and nerves, and by biomechanical constraints in the dentition and the temporomandibular joints with their associated ligaments. This paper analyses biomechanical constraints in relation to shape, function, stability and dysfunction of the disc in the joint.

[Displacement and tissue remodeling of temporomandibular joint disc].

Zhonghua kou qiang yi xue za zhi = Zhonghua kouqiang yixue zazhi = Chinese journal of stomatology, 2017
Sounding takes the highest prevalence of the signs of temporomandibular disorders (TMD). The well accepted theory of the mechanism for temporomandibular joint (TMJ) sounding is the internal derangement typically characterized by disc displacement. However, according to literature, there are approximately one third of asymptomatic joints in population ...
