Osteoarthrosis--Osteophyte formation along the
mandibular condyle and articular eminence can be seen in the setting of osteoarthrosis (Figure 11).

In our study using CBCT, we observed changes in the shape of the
mandibular condyle from 25 days after MIA injection; the damage was most expressive 45 days after inducement, with a serious alteration in the shape.
This examination process in children with suspected TMD, and particularly ADDR, should involve the careful assessment of three main anatomical joint structures: (a) the position of articular disc relative to the
mandibular condyle; (b) the location of the condyle relative to the temporal joint surfaces; and (c) the depth of the glenoid fossa.
It was concluded that the type of vertical malocclusion has no significant influence on the measurements of
mandibular condyle head, i.e., perimeter, area, height, and changes in the condyle surface shape.

Hence, in the study fetuses, the internal surface of the articular capsule is lined by a synovial that coats the intra-articular structures, except for the articular cartilage present in the articular tubercle, the roof of the mandibular fossa and the
mandibular condyle. In the articular disc, the covers only short segments of the anterior and posterior ends.
(14) simulated defects, about 1 mm in diameter, in
mandibular condyles, and the MSCT and single slice CT images that they obtained were evaluated in different reconstruction protocols, taking into account the orientation of the slices generated (axial slices x MPR images).
When the mouth is closed, the disk is positioned at approximately 11 o'clock with respect to the
mandibular condyle; the posterior segment of the disk caps the apex of the
mandibular condyle.
It is located posterior to the
mandibular condyle and posterior clivus (figures 1, 3).
The original article was written in 1890 by Ferdinand Graff Spee, and it has been recently represented that this anteroposterior curve, or curve of Spee, was defined as the anatomical curve established by the occlusal alignment of the teeth, as projected onto the median plane, beginning with the cusp tip of the mandibular canine and following the buccal cusp tips of the premolar and molar teeth, continuing through the anterior border of the mandibular ramus, and ending at the anterior aspect of the
mandibular condyle.
This explains why
mandibular condyle and ramus, specifically the ramus, are the most sexually dimorphic.
