Arthrosis of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) poses significant challenges in dental and skeletal health. This article explores the intricate relationship between arthrosis of the TMJ and its impact on the jawbone and teeth. Degenerative changes within the TMJ, including cartilage erosion and osteophyte formation, lead to altered biomechanical forces on the jawbone, resulting in structural changes such as bone resorption and sclerosis. Dental manifestations, including malocclusion and tooth wear, further complicate the clinical picture. Diagnosis involves clinical evaluation and radiographic imaging, while treatment encompasses conservative and surgical interventions. A multidisciplinary approach is essential for managing symptoms and improving quality of life for affected individuals.
