Abstract
GUERRERO AGUILAR, Andrea; FLORES ARAQUE, María Elena; FLORES CARRERA, Eduardo and VELASQUEZ RON, Byron. Condylar position and temporomandibular Joint Space analysis with Cone-beam tomography. Odontología Vital [online]. 2021, n.35, pp.6-16. ISSN 1659-0775.
Aim.
To compare the condylar position and joint space of the temporomandibular join in individuals with and without temporomandibular dysfunction, using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT).
Methods.
Research Diagnostic Criteria for Temporomandibular Disorders Axis II (n= 50) patients both sexes, age 18 - 27 years. Random sample (n=50) patients equivalent to 100 joints, obtaining: n-25 patients without temporomandibular dysfunction, considered asymptomatic and 25 patients with and without temporomandibular dysfunction, considered symptomatic. By tomography Cone Beam of open mouth temporomandibular joint - closed mouth was manually evaluated the interarticular spaces.
Results.
The anterior condylar position space and condylar position not significantly different in induvials with and without temporomandibular dysfunction temporomandibular disorders p=0,30 and p=0,58, respectively.
Conclusions.
There is no significant difference in the condylar position and intraarticular.
Keywords : condylar position; temporomandibular joint disorders; temporomandibular joint dysfunction syndrome; mandibular condyle.
