LOPEZ LOPEZ, J et al. Imaging diagnosis of temporomandibular disorders. Av Odontoestomatol [online]. 2005, vol.21, n.2, pp.71-88. ISSN 2340-3152.
Clinical history, exploration and anamnesis about depressive -anxious symptoms are the basis of diagnosis of temporomandibular disorders. It’s also very important to know about pain, loss of function of temporomandibular joint, swallowing and talking. We should consider temporomandibular joint as a syndrome and is necessary to include an exploration of orofacial tissues, muscles, nerves and parafunctions. After the anamnesis and exploration, it’s necessary to perform some test, mainly based in imaging techniques, in order to reach a correct diagnosis. In this paper we review the importance of imaging in the diagnosis of temporomandibular disorders.
