title: [TMJ examination in patients with underlying rheumatic diseases].
abstract: Within this scope of a diagnostic study 50 patients with underlying rheumatic disease and temporomandibular joint symptoms were examined in the rheumatological and oral-maxillofacial surgery specialty. About half of the patients with inflammatory rheumatic disease showed a primary temporomandibular arthritis, about half of which had radiological findings of advanced stage of arthrosis deformans. Therapeutical particularities of the treatments of primary temporomandibular arthritis are shown.
