Abstract
The purpose of this study were to compare the condylar path and the anterior angle of glenoid fossae, and analyze the condylar path, and classify the patterns of condylar path. Thirty-three male and female dental students with normal occlusion and masticatory system ranging in age from 24 to 27, without present symptoms and any history of TM joint disturbance, were selected for this study. Then, sixty-six TM joint were examed. Transcranial radiographs of TM joint and Cephalometric radiographs under mandibular protrusive movement were obtained. They were taken at six positions on protrusive movement. The results obtained were as follows : 1. The sequence of the frequeny of condylar movement patterns were concave curve, "S"shape curve, convex curve, and reverse "S"shape. 2. The horizontal distance of the greatest changed position of condylar angle averaged 2.6mm. 3. The condylar path angle averaged 36.91 degree. 4. The angle of the anterior slope of glenoid fossae averaged 37.28 degree. 5. The distance fo condylar movement averaged 5.98mm and the distance of condylar horizontal movement averaged 4.71mm. 6. The slope of articular eminence was correlated to the condyalr path and three were no significant differences between right and left side of the anterior slope of articular eminence, and the condyalr path angle.
