Tissue engineering toward temporomandibular joint disc regeneration
Natalia Vapniarsky,Le W. Huwe,Boaz Arzi,Meghan K. Houghton,Mark E. Wong,James W. Wilson,David C. Hatcher,Jerry C. Hu,Kyriacos A. Athanasiou +8 more
TL;DR: A scaffold-free approach to tissue engineering disc implants that had biomechanical and biochemical properties similar to native discs and improved closure of disc defects, reduced osteoarthritis scores, and reduced degenerative changes in the jaw joint could help advance development of regenerative therapies for TMJ dysfunction.
The Yucatan Minipig Temporomandibular Joint Disc Structure-Function Relationships Support Its Suitability for Human Comparative Studies.
Natalia Vapniarsky,Ashkan Aryaei,Boaz Arzi,David C. Hatcher,Jerry C. Hu,Kyriacos A. Athanasiou +5 more
TL;DR: The objective of this study was to determine the suitability of the minipig for TMJ studies by extensive structural and functional characterization and to reproduce previously reported morphological, biochemical, and biomechanical values of human and FP discs.
Clinical Application of Cone-Beam Computed Tomography of the Rabbit Head: Part 1 - Normal Dentition.
G. G. Riggs,Boaz Arzi,Derek D. Cissell,David C. Hatcher,Philip H. Kass,Amy Zhen,Frank Verstraete +6 more
TL;DR: This study shows the feasibility and yield of CBCT when evaluating the maxillofacial features and dentition in rabbits and finds that CBCT was superior to conventional CT when imaging the dentition.

TL;DR: The anatomy and pathology of the joints are examined, current treatments and products for cartilage afflictions are compared, and ways to accelerate the TMJ field are explored.
Evaluation of the diagnostic yield of dental radiography and cone-beam computed tomography for the identification of dental disorders in small to medium-sized brachycephalic dogs.
TL;DR: CBCT methods were better suited than dental radiography for the identification of anatomic landmarks in brachycephalic dogs, and results of this study can serve as a basis for CBCT evaluation of dental disorders in brachydactylic dogs.
