Mri Evaluation

Occlusal stabilization appliances or splints are the most widely employed method for treatment of temporomandibular disorders (TMD). Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is the most indicated imaging modality to evaluate the components of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ). Forty patients with signs and symptoms of temporomandibular disorders were treated with splints for a mean period of 12 months, comprising regular semimonthly follow-ups. After stabilization of the clinical status, occlusal adjustments and MRI evaluation were performed. It was concluded that the success of this kind of treatment are related to the total (70%) or partial improvement (22.5%) of painful symptomatology and to the functional reestablishment of the craniomandibular complex. The MRI allowed evaluation and also the conclusion that the splints provide conditions for the organism to develop means to resist to the temporomandibular disorders by means of elimination of several etiologic factors. Moreover, after treatment the patients are able to cope with disc displacements with larger or smaller tolerance.

Diagnostic Significance

Abstract Background This study was to evaluate the diagnostic significance of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) in distinguishing temporomandibular disorders (TMD). Methods A total of 684 patients with TMD were included in the study. Diagnosis for TMD was conducted according to the international criteria. Two professional radiologists were selected for professional training, and the Kappa values were compared for the diagnosis results to determine the consistency of the diagnosis. Then MRI images of these 684 patients were analyzed and the diagnosis results were obtained. Results MRI can be used for the diagnosis of TMD. There were significantly more females (518 cases) than males (166 cases) with TMD; Disc displacement with/without reduction is more common in the youth group, with the majority aged 20–30 years. The highest incidence of temporomandibular joint osteoarthrosis is in the 60-year-old age group, followed by the 70-year-old age group. Conclusions Bilateral temporomandibular joint MRI can clearly show their changes; there are significantly more female with TMD than male; osteoarthritis has a significant correlation with age.
