Joint Noises are evidence of a change in the relationship between the disc and the head of the condyle int he Temporomandibular joint. Disc position is an important diagnostic finding that assesses joint stability, and ultimately the stability of the occlusion. In this video I talk through and demonstrate both the sounds we feel and hear on an exam, what they tell us about disc position and how this information relates to stability and occlusal risk.
