Orthognathic surgery is a typical approach for treating maxillofacial deformities. However, orthognathic surgery results in positional changes in the condyles. In a previous review, the effects of orthognathic surgery on temporomandibular joints (TMJs) are not provided. Hence, in this study, we investigate the morphological changes in TMJs after mandibular and bi-maxillary osteotomies. The relationship between the morphological parameters of TMJs and symptoms of temporomandibular disorders (TMDs) is discussed. Finite element contact stress analysis is performed, and the results show that the two abovementioned surgeries can improve maxillofacial deformities, although the positions of the condyles are changed. Moreover, preoperative stress asymmetry of the left and right TMJs is observed, which remain after the surgeries. TMD patient-specific analysis shows that three joint spaces (medial joint space, lateral joint space, superior joint space) are significantly correlated with TMD symptoms.

D013705 Temporomandibular Joint Disorders A variety of conditions affecting the anatomic and functional characteristics of the temporomandibular joint. Factors contributing to the complexity of temporomandibular diseases are its relation to dentition and mastication and the symptomatic effects in other areas which account for referred pain to the joint and the difficulties in applying traditional diagnostic procedures to temporomandibular joint pathology where tissue is rarely obtained and x-rays are often inadequate or nonspecific. Common diseases are developmental abnormalities, trauma, subluxation, luxation, arthritis, and neoplasia.
