Abstract

Aims & Objective: To compare the bony changes in TMJ OA with and without generalized OA & to estimate the prevalence of TMJ OA in generalized OA.

Materials & Methods: The study contained three groups consisting of total 156 patients. The bony changes in TMJ was evaluated according to Ahmed et al criteria, using CBCT and the data was analysed statistically.

Results: TMJ OA in generalized OA was 63.4%. Flattening of TMJ was common finding in group I and II although more in group II. Subchondral sclerosis was found more in group I while osteophytes formation was absent in Group I. According to Ahmed et al criteria, indeterminate osteoarthritis and osteoarthritis was more in group II.

Conclusion: The pattern of bone change is different in TMJ OA with generalized OA and without generalized OA. Therefore, we propose that radiographic evaluation of TMJ should be contemplated in patients with generalized osteoarthritis.

Keywords: Temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis, generalized Osteoarthritis, CBCT.
