  • Title: Statistical study of the angle formed by the lateral part of the mandibular condyle and the horizontal plane.
    Author: Preti G, Bruscagin C, Scotti R, Cardesi E.
    Journal: J Prosthet Dent; 1983 Oct; 50(4):571-5. PubMed ID: 6579292.
    Abstract:
    The angle between the LCA and frontal plane and the inclination of the lateral part of the mandibular condyle and the horizontal plane were measured in a sample of the skulls used in the study. Correlation between the two angles was found to be almost insignificant. Fifty-eight percent of the TMJs had an inclination of the lateral part of the condyle less than 15 degrees. The maximum value for this angle was found to be 45 degrees, and the minimum was -6 degrees.
