[New aspects of the physiology of dental occlusion. 1. Morphology of the temporomandibular joint].
The present article review, in the recent literature, some anatomical and biomechanical concepts about the temporomandibular joint in order to the better understanding of the physiology and dysfunction of the articulation. We point out the references about the function of the meniscus in the mandibular dynamics and the functional matrix concept and its relationship to temporomandibular joint dysfunction.
