Exploring the Association Between Clinical Features and CBCT Findings in TMJ Degenerative Joint Disease
The findings support an indication-driven approach to CBCT imaging, highlighting its diagnostic value in patients with specific clinical presentations, such as TMJ clicking, combined with additional clinical indicators. Routine CBCT imaging for all patients with TMD is not justified and future research should focus on refining imaging guidelines to ensure judicious use in TMJ diagnostics.
