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

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 ...

External Acoustic Meatus Approach for Ultrasonographic Evaluation of the Temporomandibular Joint: An Anatomical Validation and Proof‐of‐Concept Study

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Temporomandibular disorders (TMD) represent a public health problem, affecting 31% of adults and the elderly and 11% of children and adolescents. Interest is growing in using ultrasound to evaluate the temporomandibular joint (TMJ). However, researchers need to standardize a reliable method.

Continuity‐Preserving Oral and Maxillofacial Anatomy (C‐POMA)

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Traditional anatomical investigation has largely relied on progressive separation of tissues into discrete anatomical entities. Although this approach has been fundamental to modern anatomy, tissue separation may disrupt structural relationships and influence the interpretation of anatomical structures, variations, and boundaries, particularly
