Significance of radiographic temporomandibular degenerative joint disease findings
The field of orthodontics has seen a recent increase in the number of patients over the age of 50 seeking treatment and also an increase in the use of cone beam technology. Similar to other joints in the body, the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is associated with age-related degeneration. However, unlike other joints, degeneration of the TMJ is rarely symptomatic and when there is pain, it is usually self-limiting. In this article, we will review: (a) the incidence and prevalence of TMJ degenerative diseases, (b) similarities and differences of TMJ vs knee degenerative diseases, and (c) current treatment recommendations for TMJ degenerative diseases. In the vast majority of people, radiographic evidence of TMJ degeneration is an incidental finding. Future longitudinal research is needed to follow the natural course of TMJ degenerative patients.
