Abstract

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the joint spaces, and to study the presence of symmetry between the right and left mandibular condyles, or the observed asymmetry of the condylar process, and the extent of its relationship to the occlusal type and morphology of the mandibular condyle in a sample of adult individuals.. Methods: Cone-beam computed tomography images of 24 adult patients (age, 18-40 years) with a normal growth pattern were selected and divided into two groups: skeletal class I (n = 12) and skeletal class III (n = 12), according to ANB measurements.. The anterior, posterior, and superior joint spacess were measured.Conclusions:, The joint spaces are similar between classes I and III in the normal growth pattern.
