Oriented lateral temporomandibular joint laminagraphs. Symptomatic and nonsymptomatic joints compared

Lateral temporomandibular joint laminagraphs are aligned with the condyle axis on the basis of a submental-vertex radiograph. Condyle positions in nonsymptomatic and symptomatic joints are compared, revealing a wide range in patients with temporomandibular joint and myofascial pain dysfunction syndromes, with significant differences from non-symptomatic patients.
