Introduction: Temporomandibular Dysfunction (TMD) is a chronic condition affecting bone, muscle, and other tissues of the temporomandibular joint and surrounding areas. The symptoms of temporomandibular dysfunction vary depending on the severity of the case. They can include muscle spasms, restricted jaw and cheek movement, difficulty opening and closing the mouth, tenderness, lockjaw, and pain in the ear and neck. While temporomandibular dysfunction is multifaceted, this study will focus on patients with intraarticular cartilage defects of the temporomandibular joint. Cartilage defects are usually caused by wear and tear, but some patients may develop them as a result of disease, infection, or trauma. Methods: This study documents observational data from five refractory temporomandibular dysfunction patients at the Pain a.. View more»
