“…In addition to clinical evaluation, imaging helps to assess the stability of PCR. Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) helps to evaluate bony changes in three dimensions more efficiently than conventional radiographs [ 7 ]. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) helps to evaluate soft tissue changes associated with degenerative changes due to PCR [ 3 ].…”

Progressive condylar resorption is a dysfunctional remodeling of the temporomandibular joint of unknown origin. It usually manifests in young girls and causes reduced ramus height, loss of condylar volume, steep mandibular angle, limited jaw motion, and pain. On magnetic resonance imaging, the condition is associated with anterior disc displacement with or without reduction. This article discusses imaging features of progressive condylar resorption that cause severe temporomandibular joint degenerative changes, emphasizing the careful evaluation of imaging changes of the temporomandibular joint in young female patients. The early diagnosis of progressive condylar resorption helps to reduce the further progression of the condition.
