Results

Out of the 124 patients, 121 were females and the average age was 46.86 years.

Fig 7: Females in the fifth decade of life have the highest prevalence of TMJ OA
The pain occurred in the left TMJ in 84 patients, the right TMJ in 71 patients, and on both sides in 31 patients. In the painful joints (155 TMJs), radiological signs of OA were observed in 119 TMJs (76.77%), anterior disc displacement with reduction (ADDWR) in 34 TMJs (21.94%), anterior disc displacement without reduction (ADDWoR) in 73 TMJs (47.1%), and joint effusion in 71 TMJs (45.8%).
Fig 8: Prevalence of the radiological features in the painful joints: OA = osteoarthritis, ADDWR = anterior disc displacement with reduction, ADDWoR = anterior disc displacement without reduction, and joint effusion.
However, one or more of the pathological features (OA, DD, and effusion) were also noticed in 75 (80.6%) asymptomatic joints.
