Morphometric parameters of the temporomandibular joint elements at its chronic luxation's and subluxation

The paper notes the relevance of the temporomandibular joint, in particular, chronic dislocation and subluxation. The aim of the study was to study morphometric parameters of the temporomandibular joint using computed tomography and to identify anatomical and topographical features of those with chronic dislocation and subluxation of the joint. The article describes the method of measurement of bone structures, which we studied 27 patients with chronic dislocation and subluxation of the temporomandibular joint. This study allows to conclude that in patients with dislocation and subluxation of the temporomandibular joint have structural violations of the elements of the joint, their proportions that have a significant asymmetry.
