Transversal TMJ-resiliency is defined as a possible movement of the condyles exclusively in the lateromedial direction. The extent of this individual and variable shifting of the condyles can be recorded and reproduced using high-resolution electronic axiography and a special manipulating technique by the dentist. A study on 52 patients showed an average value of 0.3 mm for the transversal resiliency, which can be considered as physiological range. The results were discussed along with the question for the relevance of transversal TMJ-resiliency measuring regarding TMJ-disorders.
横向颞下颌关节弹性被定义为髁突仅在内外侧方向上的可能运动。髁突这种个体性且可变的移位程度可以通过高分辨率电子轴位成像和牙医的特殊操作技术进行记录和重现。一项针对52名患者的研究显示，横向弹性的平均值为0.3毫米，可被视为生理范围。研究结果结合了关于横向颞下颌关节弹性测量与颞下颌关节紊乱相关性的问题进行了讨论。
