Collagen type in dysfunctional temporomandibular joint disks

The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1995
Controlled studies were undertaken to ascertain the nature of the fibrous tissue component of surgically removed dysfunctional human temporomandibular joint disks. Each disk was divided into several parts and dissociative methods were used to extract collagenous residues.

Determination of the radiographic position of the temporomandibular joint disk

Oral Surgery, Oral Medicine, Oral Pathology, 1988
We describe a method of measuring displacement and reduction of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disk that makes use of reproducible geometric measurements from radiographs in the sagittal plane. This procedure leads to a simple quantitative classification scheme for condyle-disk-fossa/eminence relationships.

Changes in condylar dimensions in temporomandibular joints with disk displacement

Oral Surgery, Oral Medicine, Oral Pathology and Oral Radiology, 2020
The aim of this study was to investigate the condylar dimensions of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) with respect to disk displacements and sex by using computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).Disk displacements were divided into 3 groups based on MRI findings: normal disk position (NR), disk displacement with reduction (DDR ...

Change of position of the temporomandibular joint disk with insertion of a disk-repositioning appliance

Oral Surgery, Oral Medicine, Oral Pathology, Oral Radiology, and Endodontology, 1998
We report alteration of the temporomandibular joint disk and the condyle position through the construction of a mandibular full-coverage occlusal appliance (often referred to as a disk repositioning appliance).Forty-five joints with displaced disks with reduction were available for the study.

Temporomandibular joint click sound and magnetic resonance-depicted disk position: Which relationship?

open access: yesJournal of Dentistry, 2008
The aim of this work was to evaluate the agreement between temporomandibular joint click sound and MR diagnoses of different disk positions. Methods: One hundred ninety-four (N = 194) patients seeking treatment for temporomandibular disorders at the TMD ...

Effect of fascia repair of the temporomandibular joint disk of sheep

Oral Surgery, Oral Medicine, Oral Pathology, 1991
The effects of temporal fascia graft repair of temporomandibular joint disk perforation on intra-articular structure were examined on four sheep. Four sheep had bilateral disk perforations. At 20 weeks the perforation in the right joint was repaired with a temporal fascia graft.

Meniscectomy for Damaged Disks of the Temporomandibular Joint

Southern Medical Journal, 1985
Internal derangements of the temporomandibular joint are now known to be a common cause of pain in the joint area. Several specific surgical treatments for this disorder are advocated, but none is yet well established. Meniscectomy has been one of the more commonly done procedures.

Glycosaminoglycans in normal and osteoarthrotic human temporomandibular joint disks

Acta Odontologica Scandinavica, 1992
Glycosaminoglycans in normal and osteoarthrotic temporomandibular joint disks were studied by means of high-performance liquid chromatography methods. Normal disk tissue contains galactosaminoglycans (chondroitin sulfate and dermatan sulfate) as the main polysaccharides and with smaller amounts of hyaluronate and heparan sulfate.

Movements of the Temporomandibular Joint Disk

Seminars in Orthodontics, 2012
The etiology of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders, including osteoarthritis, is largely unexplained. TMJ disc integrity is crucial, since its failure appears to precede degeneration of the joint. During mandibular function, the TMJ disc undergoes displacements and deformations, generating strains and stresses.
