What does a TM joint X-ray show?plus

A temporomandibular (TM) joint X‑ray visualizes the bony components , the mandibular condyle, glenoid fossa and articular eminence , showing alignment, fractures, joint‑space changes, bone erosion, osteoarthritis, bone spurs, ankylosis or dislocation. It detects degenerative changes and structural abnormalities but is limited for soft tissues (articular disc); MRI or CT better assess discs and detailed bone pathology.

How to take TM Joint X-ray?plus

Position the patient sitting or standing with the head stabilized. Obtain at least two views: closed‑mouth and open‑mouth (to show condylar translation), using a transcranial or lateral oblique projection for each side. Instruct the patient to bite a spacer for open mouth and keep teeth in occlusion for closed. Use thyroid shielding, correct exposure, and immobilize the head. For disc/soft‑tissue concerns, order MRI or CBCT.
