Tensile Characterization of Porcine Temporomandibular Joint Disc Attachments [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Dental Research, 2013
The frequency and impact of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders necessitate research in characterizing the joint’s function. The 6 discal attachments have not yet been systematically characterized under tension. Understanding their role in joint function may guide our study of TMJ pathologies, including disc displacement.

Assessment of occlusal appliance in repositioning of the temporomandibular joint anterior disc displacement with reduction: a 3 to 36 months follow-up

open access: yesAlʹmanah Kliničeskoj Mediciny, 2017
Rationale: Occlusal appliance is one of methods for temporomandibular joint anterior disc displacement with reduction (ADDWR). However, most studies have focused on the symptom reliefs rather than the disc-condyle positional relationship.

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

open access: yesJournal 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 ...
