Abstract
Among the reasons for patients visiting a dentist, one of the most common is the pathology of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ), which occurs in 25-50% of the population [2,3,4]. According to the classification of ICD-10, TMJ diseases are classified as class XII " Maxillofacial abnormalities (including malocclusion) ”and Section 6“ Temporomandibular joint diseases ”, arthropathy and arthrosis of all joints of various etiologies are also described in class XIII“ Diseases of the musculoskeletal system and connective tissue ”. TMJ internal disorders are referred to in this classification by the terms “clicking jaw”, “TMJ dislocation and subluxation
Highlights
Osteoarthritis of the temporomandibular joints occurs in 76.8% of patients with dentoalveolar anomalies and muscular-articular dysfunctions [7.8]
A number of authors suggest that connective tissue dysplasia, which is often manifested by pathology of the musculoskeletal and ligamentous apparatus, is one of the factors in the development of internal disorders in the temporomandibular joint [1,4,5,6]
As a result of the research, Kupriyanov I.A. et al (2003), Ivasenko P.I. et al (2007) found that in patients with connective tissue dysplasia and internal disorders of the temporomandibular joint, catabolic processes prevail in the tissues, chronic inflammation with a pronounced productive component, manifested by edema of the connective tissue, perivascular infiltrates, homogenization of collagen fibers, hyalinosis, expressed sclerosis, is diagnosed. which causes a more severe course of the disease due to obliteration of blood vessels, deterioration of trophism of the capsular-ligamentous apparatus
