The effect of mandibular movement on temporomandibular joint morphology while eating French fries

CONCLUSIONS: Between both temporomandibular joints, unilateral mastication resulted in significant differences in the regions of the condylar movement within the articular fossa, and then caused different compressive regions of the temporomandibular joints. Thus, unilateral mastication might result in a significantly different pattern of temporomandibular joint remodeling between the two sides.PMID:36041696 | DOI:10.1016/j.aanat.2022.151992
