In plain terms, the small \u201ccushion\u201d inside the jaw joint is not sitting where it usually does. It is most commonly discussed in TMJ-related evaluations for jaw clicking, locking, or limited opening. Clinicians use the term to describe a pattern of joint mechanics, not a dental filling material or a procedure by itself."}
