International Journal of Research in Medical Science · 2025 · Vol. 7(2) · pp. 164–166

Abstract

Osteoarthritis (OA) of the Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) is a progressive degenerative condition characterized by the breakdown of articular cartilage, subchondral bone remodelling, and varying degrees of inflammation. It often presents with joint pain, limited mandibular movement, stiffness, and crepitus, significantly affecting the patient's quality of life. This article discusses a case of osteoarthritis in the Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ), which was unexpectedly found in a 29 years old female patient.
