retrusion
L/R lateral excursions

37
Q

what is the Normal depression ROM of the TMJ

A

40-50 mm

38
Q

how do u test of normal depression ROM

A

have pt open mouth and use their fingers to test it
2 fingers is function and 3 fingers is normal

39
Q

what happens 1st during normal depression

A

11-25 mm anterior rotation of condyle on disc which leads to posteior roll of mandible

40
Q

what happens 2nd during normal depression

A

translation : both condyle and disc anterior and interior which leads to anterior slide of condyle

41
Q

during depression what control of the disc translate along the articular eminence and retrodiscal lamina limits translation

A

passively

42
Q

if there is active depression of the disc what happens

A

there is no active contraction of superior lateral pterygoid

43
Q

what happens passively during elevation of the mandible

A

elasticity of the superior retrodisc lamina apples traction force posteriorly

44
Q

during active elevation of what eccentrically contracts to control posterior gliding and rotation of condyle

A

superior lateral pterygoid

45
Q

during active elevation what attached to anterolateral portion of the disc to counteract the lateral pterygoid

A

masseter

46
Q

what 3 muscles provide contrast pressure on disc to prevent dislocation during elevation

A

temporalis , medial pterygoid and masseter

47
Q

where do protrusion and retrusion occurs

A

in superior portion of the joint

48
Q

what is anterior translation without rotation of inferior joint

A

protrusion

49
Q

bilateral lamina stretch _____ to allow complete motion during protrusion

A

6-9mm

50
Q

during protrusion teeth touching = ____ and lower teeth passing upper teeth = ___

A

normal
max

51
Q

what does retrusion do

A

translation posteriorly (3mm)

52
Q

what is retrusion limited by

A

TM lig and soft tissue in retrodiscal area

53
Q

what is a important component of mandibular elevation from maximally depressed mandible

A

retrusion

54
Q

what is the normal range of lateral excursion

A

8-11 mm

55
Q

if someone does a right lateral excursion what happens at the joint

A

right TMJ rotation and L TMJ translation

56
Q

if someone has tight right side muscles then what excursion will be limited

A

L side bc the R side will not be able to go into translation

57
Q

during lateral excursion there is an …

A

ipsilateral mandibular condyle rotation and contralateral mandibular condyle translations

58
Q

what is it called if the mandible moves away from mandible during mandibular depression and stays to the L or R

A

deviation

59
Q

what is a deflection

A

when the mandible move away from madeline during depressions or protrusion but then returns to midline at end range

60
Q

what muscles help depression

A

digastric & suprahyoids
inferior lateral pterygoid
gravity

61
Q

what muscles help elevation

A

temporalis
masseter
medial pterygoid
superior lateral pterygoid

62
Q

what muscles help assist protrusion

A

Bil: masseter , medial and lateral pterygoid

63
Q

what muscles help assist with retrusion

A

bil: temporalis , assisted by anterior digastric

64
Q

what muscles help with lateral deviation

A

unilateral contraction of medial and lateral pterygoids to pull to contralateral side ( R medial and lateral will pull to L)

normal rest position with 1-5 mm of space between supper and lower teeth at rest

72
Q

what are teh structural changes of the disc

Q

if you have an articular disc displacement with reduction then what happens
