Q

How to define pain clinicaly

A
Location of symptom
intensity of symptom (1-10)
qualitiy of symptom (burning...)
Onset of symptom + precipitat.ing factors
Radiationof symptoms (show me where)
associated symtpoms (sound...)
Alleviating factors (avoid jaw function)
Aggravating factors (singing....
which pain do you mean
when you \_\_\_\_\_ [ what pain happens
does it hurt before getting out of bed...

52
Q

what makes up the TMJ

A
Temporal bone
Mandible
Fibrous capsul
Lateral pterygoid msucle attachments
Interpositional fibrocarilage disk
53
Q

what parts of the temporal bone are invovled in the TMJ

A

tympanic plate posterior
Glenoid (articular) fossa
Articular eminence

54
Q

what part of the mandible is invovled in the TMJ

A

mandibular condyle

55
Q

what binds the articular disk lateral and medialy

A

tightly bound to condyle laterally and medially

56
Q

how does the Disk attach to the posterior wall

A

Loose retrodiscall attachment

57
Q

what attaches the disk anterior and posteior

A

Loose conenctive tissue

58
Q

what lines the anterior and posterior recesses of the TMJ

A

synovium lining

59
Q

can the disk heal itself

A

Yes

60
Q

is the articular disk a meniscus

A

No

61
Q

roll of the retrodiscal zone

A

All the condyle to move forward by preventing a suction effect

62
Q

How far can the TMJ rotate

A

20mm

63
Q

how far can the TMJ translate

A

40-50mm

64
Q

how far can the TMJ move laterally

A

Contralateral 7-10mm

65
Q

what does protrusion do to the TMJ

A

translates both joints

66
Q

where is the disk when the mouth is closed

A

On the back surface of the articular emienence on top of the condyl

67
Q

where is the disk when the mouth is open

A

On top the condyl and underthe articular eminence

68
Q

how common is anterior disc displacement

A

Very common (12-45% of people)

69
Q

symptoms of anterior disc displacement

A

Frequenctly asymptomatic

70
Q

pathology for Anterior disc displacment

A

Most agree not a pathological condition
some say class II malocclusion may be caused by ADD
all agree that ADD can become patholgy in some individuals

71
Q

what id the noticiable differnec with an anterior displaced sidk

A

MAkes an audible pop with condyl snapping below it

No
