a trend towards significancep = 0.088
Twelve variable regression for the need for any invasive treatment showed statistical significance for left joint effusion (p = 0.021), left disc displacement (p = 0.020), and left condyle degeneration (p = 0.013), as well as a trend towards significance for left disc recapture (p = 0.088). 4 Discussion A bilateral composite TMJ internal derangement score (TIDS) greater than 6 was found to have a statistically significant correlation with severity of TMJ pathology, as evidenced by the requirement for bilateral invasive treatment or any invasive treatment.
