    Uploaded by

    Ju Wen
    This document outlines diagnostic criteria and investigations for temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders. The diagnostic criteria include severe restricted opening of the mouth, joint tenderness, clicking upon opening, a closing click, limited mouth opening, and mandibular midline defects. Investigations that can be done include blood tests to check for rheumatoid factor, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, C-reactive protein, and antinuclear antibody. Imaging tests include conventional radiography, modified conventional radiography with dye injection or orthography, CT scan, MRI, and ultrasonography.
