In an article published in the ODF Review in 1987, we described the static relationships existing between and among the different components of the temporomandibular joint. This new article completes that work by supplying a dynamic vision of the range of movement, as well as recent anatomical and electromyographic data concerning the lateral pterygoid muscle.
Key words: Temporomandibular joint / Anatomy / Physiology / Lateral pterygoid muscle
