OBJECTIVES: Shear wave elastography (SWE) are promising techniques in diagnosing temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disc and masseter muscle disorders. To investigate normative stiffness values of the TMJ disc and masseter muscle by SWE in children and adolescents.
METHODS: This prospective study evaluated 123 TMJ discs and masseter muscles in 123 subjects. The stiffnesses of anterior, middle, and posterior parts of the disc and the masseter muscle were measured. This study investigated differences in mean elasticity [kilopascal (kPa)] and velocity [metre/second (m/s)] values of the different disc parts and the masseter muscle in closed and open mouth positions, and the correlations of these SWE values with age, body mass index (BMI), height, and weight of the subjects.
RESULTS: The median stiffness disc values of all participants were 28.7 kPa (elasticity) and 3.07 m/s (velocity) for the anterior, 29.10 kPa and 3.07 m/s for the middle, and 23.2 kPa and 2.77 m/s for the posterior parts. Posterior stiffness was significantly lower than other body regions in all subjects and across all age groups. The mean stiffness values of the muscle were 16.96 ± 9.01 kPa and 2.33 ± 1.2 m/s for the closed mouth, and 28.7 ± 10.2 kPa and 3.23 ± 1.32 m/s for the open mouth.
CONCLUSION: The stiffness of the TMJ disc was significantly lower in the posterior part than in the anterior or middle parts. The mean stiffness was significantly higher in the open mouth than in the closed mouth position. Neither elasticity nor velocity were associated with age, height, weight, or BMI.
