The role of the disk in sheep temporomandibular joint ankylosis

Oral Surgery, Oral Medicine, Oral Pathology, Oral Radiology, and Endodontology, 1999
The purpose of this study was to determine the role of the disk in intraarticular ankylosis of the temporomandibular joint.Twelve adult sheep were divided into 2 groups. In group 1, removal of the temporal and condylar articular surfaces was performed on the right temporomandibular joint and the disk was maintained; in group 2, removal of the articular

Disk Repositioning Surgery of the Temporomandibular Joint With Bioabsorbable Anchor

Journal of Craniofacial Surgery, 2013
The most common temporomandibular joint (TMJ) pathologic disease is anterior-medial displacement of the articular disk, which can lead to TMJ-related symptoms.The indication for disk repositioning surgery is irreversible TMJ damage associated with temporomandibular pain.

Fibronectin Upregulation in Human Temporomandibular Joint Disks With Internal Derangement

Journal of Craniofacial Surgery, 2004
Fibronectin is a large fibril-forming extracellular glycoprotein that seems to be involved in joint diseases. The objective of this study was to investigate the expression of fibronectin in human temporomandibular joint disks obtained from patients with internal derangement and varying extents of disk tissue degeneration/regeneration with that of ...

A classification of temporomandibular joint disk morphology

Oral Surgery, Oral Medicine, Oral Pathology, 1989
Disk morphology has been recognized as an important feature of internal derangements of the temporomandibular joint and as a suspect in functional impediments. A classification of disk shapes was devised by means of corrected lateral cephalometric arthrotomograms and histopathologic sagittal sections. Five basic shapes were identified: bow tie (normal),

Fibrous Component of the Temporomandibular Joint Disk

CRANIO®, 1985
AbstractThis article describes the spatial arrangement of collagen fibrils in the articular disk of the normal human temporomandibular joint (TMJ). Disks obtained at necropsy were examined by light microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. Observations by light microscopy showed dense cartilaginous tissue composed of collagen fiber bundles running ...

Pathology of temporomandibular joint internal derangement and osteoarthrosis

International Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 1993
Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) osteoarthrosis and disk displacement seem to be strongly related, but they may also represent mutually independent temporomandibular disorders.

Temporomandibular Joint Disk Fracture: A Case Report

CRANIO®, 2011
A case of a patient with a fracture of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disk is reported. The patient presented with posterior bilateral open-bite and difficulty to chew due to lack of contact between the posterior teeth. Diagnosis of disk fracture of the right TMJ was made based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), with posterior displacement of the ...

Quantitative assessment of temporomandibular joint disk status

Oral Surgery, Oral Medicine, Oral Pathology, Oral Radiology, and Endodontology, 1998
The purpose of this study was to quantify temporomandibular joint disk-slice information produced by magnetic resonance imaging by means of a stepwise discriminant analysis. One hundred ninety-four adolescents consented to magnetic resonance imaging evaluation of their temporomandibular joints.
