Abstrakt: Objective: To correlate the clinical aspects of symptomatic patients with chronic articular disc displacement with reduction with alterations in the articular disc (AD) morphology and sagittal position. Methods: Records from 109 patients were selected that included data on AD morphology and sagittal position as determined by MRI. According to the MRI results, the sagittal position and AD morphology with opened and closed mouth were correlated with many clinical variables. Results: More than half of the patients studied were female, and the biconcave and hemiconvex morphologies were most common. Thirty-four patients (31.3%) presented with restricted maximum interincisal distance (MID). The biplanar morphology was associated with eccentric bruxism and MID ( p  < 0.05). Visual analog scale (VAS) scores between 2 and 7 were shown to be risk factors ( p  < 0.05). Conclusion: The mouth position can influence AD morphology and eccentric bruxism. VAS scores and unknown etiology were risk factors.
