TMJ degeneration: Can it be reversed? Yes, it's possible! This patient has moderate to severe TMJ degeneration, but we can help her to regenerate her joint with a neuromuscular appliance. This appliance allows the body to re-heal scar tissue and regenerate the cartilage in the joint. If you have TMJ degeneration, don't give up hope! #TMJ #TMJdegeneration #neuromuscularappliance #holisticdentistry #jawissues #jawjoint #mouth Total Care Dental | Living Well with Dr. Michelle Jorgensen

Retrodiscal tissue is highly vascular, With an arteriovenous shunt off the superficial temporal artery. So when we move the jaw forward, this area fills with blood, creating a vacuum.👈 As the condyle returns to its resting position, the blood is pushed out. And if the disc displaces, it gets pulled between the condyle and articular eminence.
