Abstract: Temporomandibular joint is the only mobile joint in oral and maxillofacial region. Temporomandibular joint disorder is one of the most common diseases in maxillofacial region. Intra-articular pressure changes with the changes of intra-articular structure and functional movement. The change of intra-articular pressure is an important factor causing temporomandibular joint disorder. The research and measurement of intra-articular pressure has certain guiding significance for the development and treatment of the disease. In this paper, we summarized research on temporomandibular joint intra-articular pressure in recent years, focusing on the mechanism of intra-articular pressure, influencing factors, measurement of intra-articular pressure and its significance for clinical treatment.

Key words: intra-articular pressure, temporomandibular joint, synovial fluid, treatment
