TMJ is crucial in normal functions such as mastication, speech, esthetics, and overall health. However, a thorough knowledge of this joint, its anatomy and functional biomechanics is essential for the correct analysis of several of its disorders (TMD). Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) dysfunction associates pain, limited mouth opening and joint noise. In case of failure of conservative treatments, surgery may be performed. Any alteration in its anatomy & function can lead compromised day to day activities. With refined design objectives and validation metrics, and with a growing awareness of TMD as pathology in need of clinical action, TMJ Bioengineering for both the mandibular condyle and TMJ disc along with arthroscopy and other treatment modalities need a thorough re- evaluation with recent advancements. This book is an insight and focus on anatomy and pathology of the joint along with arthro- and osteokinematics, epidemiology, history taking, physical examination, treatment as well as recent advancements in these arenas as they relate to TMD.
