Abstract

Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is a synovial articulation between mandibular condyle and glenoid fossa in the temporal bone. Any structural and/or functional changes can affect the TMJ and related structures. Temporomandibular disorder (TMD) is a heterogeneous group of musculoskeletal disorders mainly characterised by regional pain in the facial and preauricular area and/or limitations/interference of jaw movement. TMD has multifactorial aetiology, which includes biology, and environmental social, emotional, and cognitive factors. TMD is more common orofacial pain condition and nondental origin. Factors associated with TMD include other pain condition, auto-immune disorder and psychiatric illness. The clinical conditions may present with limitation in opening and closing mouth, pain and articular noise. So this chapter mainly deals with the classification of TMJ disorder, diagnosis and management particularly TENS and ultrasound therapy for TMJ disorder.
