Summary: | ABSTRACT
Objectives
To analyse the correlation between temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disc perforation and degenerative joint changes (DJC) on cone‐beam computed tomography (CBCT) and related factors.
Study Design
A total of 238 female patients with anterior disc displacement without reduction (ADDwoR), accounting for 348 affected joints, requiring TMJ disc open anchorage surgery were included in the study conducted from June 2021 to August 2022. Following TMJ disc open anchorage surgery, patients were divided into two groups: disc perforation (DP) and disc non‐perforation (DNP). CBCT was utilised to assess different grades of condyle and articular eminence degenerative changes, and comparisons were made between the two groups regarding DJC and clinically relevant factors.
Results
In comparison with the DNP group, the DP group exhibited statistically significant differences in mid‐ and late‐stage condyle bone degenerative changes and bone alterations of the articular eminence (odds ratio [OR] = 7.822; 95% CI [4.438–13.785]; p |
