Temporomandibular Joint Gape Angles in Normal and Painful Domestic Felines

Abstract: The purpose of this study was to determine and compare the gape angles (temporomandibular joint range of motion with mouth opening) of conscious and anesthetized domestic felines and to compare gape angles with and without evidence of oral pain. This prospective study evaluated the gape angle of 58 domestic felines. The cats were grouped into painful ( n = 33) and nonpainful cohorts ( n = 25) and gape angles were compared during conscious and anesthetized conditions. Gape angles were determined based on measur… Show more

“…A range of motion was achieved larger than in vivo jaw-opening motion, indicating that TMJR would not restrict mouth opening. [30][31][32] Similar to other maxillofacial applications, the principles of internal fixation set by the Arbeitsgemeinschaft für Osteosynthesefragen were used to secure the TMJR implants. 33,34 Motions of the mandible relative to the temporal bone were numerically very similar between intact TMJ, UniTMJR, and BiTMJR.…”
