Temporomandibular Joint Disorders – A Few Interesting Experiences to Share
Journal Title: Bengal Journal of Otolaryngology and Head Neck Surgery - Year 2015, Vol 23, Issue 2
Abstract
Temporomandibular joint disorders rarely present in a very direct way. Often, the complaints are far away from the joint itself, making the diagnosis difficult. But a high index of suspicion and a good clinical idea often clinches the diagnosis in many cases of otalgia with apparently no definitive finding.
