TMJ Internal Derangement
TMJ Internal Derangement
A condition where the articular disc in the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is displaced from its normal position, leading to reduced jaw movement and pain.
What happens in TMJ internal derangements?
What happens in TMJ internal derangements?
The articular disc, a crucial part of the TMJ, is shifted out of its usual position on the condylar head, impacting joint function.
What is the main factor in TMJ internal derangements?
What is the main factor in TMJ internal derangements?
The main cause for TMJ internal derangement is the displacement of the articular disc.
