OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to investigate the correlation between the lateral pterygoid muscle (LPM) attachment type and temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disc position on sagittal and coronal MR scans.
METHODS: 191 patients (148 females, 43 males), aged 14-60 years, underwent MR investigations of the TMJs in the intercuspal position (IP) and open-mouth position (OMP). The disc position was evaluated on oblique sagittal and coronal images in the IP and OMP on many MRI sections showing all portions of the joint. Relationships between the LPM attachment patterns and articular disc positions were evaluated by z and χ2 tests.
RESULTS: Three types of the LPM attachment were found. There was a statistically significant correlation between the LPM attachment type and the disc position in IP (χ2 = 24.29; p < 0.01). The type of muscle attachment did not determine the prevalence of normal, lateral and medial disc positions. There were differences between the muscle attachment types in the anterior, anteromedial and anterolateral disc positions. There was a statistically significant association between TMJ disc position in OMP and particular attachment types in the sagittal plane (χ2 = 9.702; p < 0.01).
CONCLUSIONS: Certain types of the LPM insertion are correlated with TMJ disc position.
