RA/OA TMJ symptoms
RA: •deep, dull preauricular pain •high incidence of ear complaints •crepitant joint noises •joint stiffness •symptoms worse in morning
OA: •preauricular and referred pain onset after function •popping, clicking, and crepitation •myogenic pain •symptoms worse in evening
RA/OA TMJ signs
RA: •edema •tender to palpation •limited function •occlusal changes •profile alteration
OA: •occasionally tender to palp •myospasm, pop, click, crepit •funct abn due to musc splinting & disc dysfunc •no occlusal-facial altertn
RA/OA TMJ radiographic findings
RA: •cloudy joint space •condyle and glenoid fossa erosion •severe cases show spiking and/or extensive bone loss from lytic enzymes and osteoclastic activity
OA: •hazy jt space •narrow of jt space •subchond remodeling & repair  broader artic surf •occasional incomplete repair leaves symptomatic osteophytes & erosions
RA/OA TMJ vertical ramus
RA: •progressive loss of vertical dimension •open bite/retrognathia in advanced cases
OA: •minor regressive remodeling with slight shortening of condyle
