Magnetic resonance imaging of TMJ

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of my Temporomandibular joint.

After to remove my wisdom teeth I started having jaw pain and articular problems. Now, 2 years later more or less, I did a MRI. Is a diagnostic prove that shows soft tissues. 

Left side: Seems good, just a small dislocation. 





Right side: displacement of the disc


If we take a look at the right side: the red circle shows the disc. We can see a displacement of the disc without reuptake. If it was good the disc will be in the glenoid fossa. 





In the coronal section we can see that if we go forward, the disc is going to be before the fossa not with the condile.
