Abstract | ||||
Background: Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) pain is the most chief complain of temporomandibular disorders (TMD) patients. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the golden standard for diagnosis of TMJ disorders. The purpose of this study was to conduct a literature review to correlate TMD pain and MRI finding. Material and methods: A review was performed using electronic databases PubMed, scopes and web of science for articles published from 2000 to 2022. A predetermined inclusion and exclusion criteria were used for filtering the scientific papers. Results: MRI imaging for patients with TMJ pain showed that 70.4% had ID and 29.6% had normal disc position while osteoarthritis was present in 69% of joints and absent in 31% of joints, moreover, temporomandibular joint effusion was reported in 55% of joints and absent in 45% of joints. Conclusion: Joint pain is much more common with internal derangement, osteoarthritis and joint effusion than with bone edema and condylar bony changes. | ||||
