Temporomandibular Joint Hypermobility Disorders
2021Hypermobility of the temporomandibular joint is characterized by mandibular condyle having greater than normal range of motion that can occur naturally in otherwise normal individual indicating a sign of joint instability. This chapter deals with identifying the various etiologic factors causing hypermobility, importance of patient education, and ...

Occlusion and Temporomandibular Joint Disorders
2021The aetiology for the development of temporomandibular disorders (TMDs) is multifactorial. This chapter deals with several controversies that exist regarding the role of occlusion as main etiological factor for TMDs with the evidence of numerous studies for and against the role of occlusion in TMD. Insights have been provided regarding various concepts

Facial asymmetry in temporomandibular joint disorders
Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, 1999In order to investigate skeletal deviation in patients with internal derangement of the TMJ, facial asymmetry was examined by the frontal cephalogram and compared with a control group of asymptomatic subjects. It was demonstrated that mandibular lateral displacement in the patients was significantly greater than that in the controls.

Imaging Temporomandibular Joint Disorders
Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Clinics of North America, 2001Summary The authors have reviewed imaging modalities and presented a decision algorithm designed for the application of these modalities for an initial survey and specific disorders of the TMJ (Fig. 16). Diagnostic imaging of the TMJ complex must be modified continually with the advent of new treatment modalities for specific TMJ disorders and as ...
