Aging Changes in the Articular Disk of the Temporomandibular Joint in the Guinea PigDepartment of Maxillo-Facial Surgery, Dental School, University of Thessaloniki, Thessaloniki, Greece
Department of Maxillo-Facial Surgery, Dental School, University of Thessaloniki, Thessaloniki, Greece The development of cartilage cells was investigated in the articular disks of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ disk) from two groups of guinea pigs age 1 month and 2 years old. There is strong evidence that the presence of chondrocytes in the TMJ disks of the older group of guinea pigs is the result of a biological aging phenomenon and is not related to pathologically induced changes.
