"Evaluating Osseous Changes in the Temporomandibular Joint: A Case Report Using Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT)"
Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders can result in osseous changes within the joint, including bony resorption, sclerosis, and osteophyte formation. These alterations may lead to pain, dysfunction, and limited mandibular mobility. Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) has become an invaluable imaging tool for evaluating both the osseous and soft tissue structures of the TMJ. This case report demonstrates the use of CBCT to diagnose osseous changes in the TMJ, highlighting the utility of this modality in the assessment of degenerative changes, and discussing its advantages over conventional imaging techniques.
