Biomechanical effects of joint disc perforation on the temporomandibular joint: a 3D finite element study

Biomechanical effects of joint disc perforation on the temporomandibular joint: a 3D finite element study

Abstract Background Disc perforation (DP) is a severe type of Temporomandibular Disorder (TMD). DP may induce changes in the internal stresses of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ). Herein, this study attempts to investigate the biomechanical effects of different positions and sizes of DP on the TMJ...
