“…Most of the previous studies suggested that the condyle in a normal individual occupied a symmetric position in the glenoid fossa (Blaschke & Blaschke, 1981; Williams, 1983). In contrast, the subjects with TMD tended to reveal asymmetric condylar position in comparison with those in normal subjects (Rozencweig, 1975; Pullinger et al. , 1987).…”

“…Gianelly, Cozzani and Boffa (1991) investigated condylar position in treated class II patients and the controls and suggested that A/P ratios were 0·68 and 0·77 in treated class II and control groups, respectively. Rozencweig (1975) suggested that the mandibular condyle was close to the temporal eminence under normal conditions and the anterior joint space was only a half of the posterior joint space, as was confirmed by the presence of thick soft tissues at the posterior joint cavity. Hansson and Nordstrom (1977) evaluated the thickness of the soft tissue layers and the articular disc in the TMJ and suggested that the thickness of the articular disc was larger in the posterior region than in the anterior, although thickness of the articular cartilage layers on the surface of the condyle and glenoid fossa was larger in the anterior area than in the posterior area.…”

“…, 1987). Rozencweig (1975) reported a high incidence of asymmetrical condylar position (63%) in patients with TMDs. The possible explanation for these findings is assumed to be that a lack of stable occlusion at the intercuspal position induces mandibular shift and the subsequent condylar displacement to compensate the occlusal discrepancy (Arnett, Milam & Gottesman, 1996).…”

The present study investigated condylar position and joint morphology in adolescent patients and elucidated the possible association between the joint structure and condylar position, and craniofacial morphology. Sixty-five adolescent patients were selected as subjects and their tomograms and lateral cephalograms were analysed. No significant differences in joint spaces were found between the right and left temporomandibular joints. Both the condyles in this population were located slight anteriorly in the glenoid fossa. With respect to the association between condylar position, joint morphology and craniofacial morphology, the ramus plane angle also exhibited significant negative correlations with posterior, lateral and medial joint spaces. Furthermore, there was a significant negative correlation between the gonial angle and the anterior joint space. These findings imply that the condyle was likely to show more posterior position in the glenoid fossa when the mandible exhibited clockwise rotation. In conclusion, the condyle in the adolescent subjects showed a symmetrical anterior position relative to the glenoid fossa. In addition, the joint spaces and it ratios were significantly related to the craniofacial morphology associated with vertical dimension. It is suggested that the condylar position may be affected by craniofacial growth pattern.

“…Moreover, the earlier studies proved that the condyle in a normodivergent subject occupied a symmetrical position in the glenoid fossa (Blaschke & Blaschke 1981., [19] and Williams 1983., [20]). In disparity, the subjects with TMD tend to had the asymmetric condylar position in comparison with normal subjects.…”

Introduction: Temporomandibular joint plays an important role in maintaining a balance between structures of oral-facial complex. And morphology of Condyle is an essential part of temporomandibular joint that response to functional load, masticatory muscle activity constantly even after completion of the growth. Therefore, its morphology directs the adaptations to these functional forces. Aim: To evaluate the TMJ morphology characteristics in various growth patterns using CBCT. Materials and Methods: The present study was conducted to evaluate and compare morphology of TMJ in different vertical growth pattern individuals in North Indian population using CBCT. Pretreatment cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) images of 10 Hypodivergent, 10 Normodivergent and 9 Hyperdivergent subjects were analyzed using SN- mandibular plane angle. Morphological parameters of TMJ such as anterior, superior, posterior joint space, condylar axial angle, mandibular fossa depth, intercondylar distance, medio-lateral and anterio-posterior width were measured and statistical analysis were done using One Way ANOVA and Post hoc Tukey test. Results: A statistically significant difference was noted in the superior joint space among Group I(4.04±0.10), Group II(3.73±0.36) and Group III(3.06±0.22)with p=0.00 and significantly correlated to facial morphology. Conclusion: TMJ morphology varies according to different growth patterns.
