1) Osteoarthritis, the most common disease of the temporomandibular joints (TMJs), is diagnosed by clinical and radiographic examination. Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) is a method of choice for the imaging of osteoarthritic changes. The objective was to compare the morphology of the TMJs in CBCT images regarding the number of the osteoarthritic changes diagnosed in the area of the condyle. (2) A total of 105 patients participated in the study; their 210 TMJs were allocated into one of three groups regarding the number of diagnosed osteoarthritic changes: 1 (none or 1 type), 2 (2 types), 3 (3 or more types). The morphology of the TMJ was examined for each TMJ in the CBCT images. Statistical analysis was performed with STATISTICA version 12.0. The statistical significance level was p = 0.05 for all the measurements included. (3) The articular surface flattening was the most common type of the osteoarthritic changes (90%). The condylar A-P dimension differed significantly among the groups (p = 0.0001). The bigger the number of osteoarthritic changes diagnosed in one joint, the smaller the condylar A-P dimension that was observed. (4) The temporomandibular joints' osteoarthritic changes occur very often, even among asymptomatic patients. The increased number of osteoarthritic changes seems to have an impact on the condylar anteroposterior dimension.

“…KEYWORDS: central nervous system sensitisation, orofacial pain, pain threshold, somatosensory disorders, temporomandibular disorders, thermal allodynia Accepted for publication 14 January 2016 Background Temporomandibular disorders (TMDs) are a broad group of conditions that affect 12% of the population (1) where pain can be located in one or more the following areas: temporomandibular joint (TMJ), masticatory muscles and related tissues (2,3). The signs and symptoms of TMDs include facial pain, tenderness to palpation of the masticatory structures, decreased mandibular range of motion, joint noise (clicking, popping or crepitus), myofascial pain and functional limitations (4,5).…”

“…It is currently accepted that TMD have a multifactorial and biopsychosocial etiologic background consisting of initiating, predisposing, and perpetuating factors . Trauma (macro or micro) has classically been considered a key etiologic factor for TMD, in addition to other factors, such as local infections, sleep disturbance, stress, and postural strain .…”

Aim:The aim of the present study was to document the prevalence and possible correlations of temporomandibular disorders (TMD) in a sample of participants from Northern Jordan. Methods:A total of 368 adult participants were consecutively selected from visitors to a major health facility in Northern Jordan and examined according to the diagnostic criteria (DC) for TMD (DC/TMD) protocol. Patients with conditions that could interfere with TMD diagnosis were excluded. Pearson correlation and analysis of variance statistical tests were applied. Statistical significance was set at P ≤ 0.05, with a 95% confidence interval.Results: A total of 98 patients (26.7%) had 1 TMD diagnoses; 60 participants (16.3%) had a pain-related TMD diagnosis, 48 (13%) had intra-articular joint disorders (IAD), and 16 had both pain-related TMD and IAD. In addition, six (1.6%) participants were found to have degenerative joint disease. Females were found to have a higher prevalence of pain-related TMD diagnoses (r = 0.111, P = 0.034) and headache (r = 0.129, P = 0.013) than males. Clicking was positively related to both pain-related TMD (r = 0.154, P = 0.003) and IAD (r = 0.576, P = 0.000). Conclusion: The frequency of TMD and related features was reported in a NorthernJordanian population using DC/TMD for the first time, and the results are comparable to other populations in similar study settings.
