A review of temporomandibular joint-related papers published between 2014-2015

Vaibhav Singh et al. J Korean Assoc Oral Maxillofac Surg. 2017 Dec.

Abstract

We conducted a retrospective study and reviewed the temporomandibular joint (TMJ)-related papers published in a leading international journal, Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, between January 2014 and December 2015. The study was conducted to ascertain and compare the trends of articles being published in the years 2014 and 2015. A total of 28 articles were reviewed, of which most of the full-length articles were on clinical management and outcomes and the role of radiology. The bulk of the studies were prospective, and less interest was shown in experimental research. A thorough review and analysis thus gives the impression that there is a great need for well-designed clinical studies on TMJ.

Keywords: Ankylosis; Temporomandibular joint; Temporomandibular joint disorders.
