CONDYLOGRAPHY Season 3 – Module 7 – hypermobility and ligamental laxity

In this module we address an often neglected part of the so-called masticatory organ: the ligaments. The role of the ligaments for the stability of the articular disc in relation to the condyle – both statically and dynamically – is discussed. A brief outline of the pathophysiology of the ligaments supports the understanding of the interpretation of condylography with ligamentous involvement.
