J Dent Res 82:212-7. 2003..95-1.07). Muscle forces during isometric biting appear to be consistent with objectives of MJL or MME, depending on the individual, biting location, and moment...
The effect of disc thickness and trauma on disc surface friction in the porcine temporomandibular jointJ C Nickel
Department of Growth and Development, University of Nebraska Medical Center, College of Dentistry, P O Box 830740, Lincoln, NE 68583 0755, USA
Arch Oral Biol 46:155-62. 2001..99). These results confirm that disc thickness and trauma to the disc affect surface friction in the TMJ, and therefore may be important factors in compromised lubrication and the development of osteoarthritis...
