    The objective of this research was to determine the imaging characteristics of osteoarthritis in the temporomandibular joint (TMJ), using panoramic radiography and CONE BEAM computed tomography in patients treated at the maxillofacial diagnosis institute. An observational, retrospective, cross-sectional, and descriptive study was conducted. A population and sample of 42 patients were determined using panoramic radiography and CONE BEAM computed tomographies. The following variables were collected: sex, age, location of the condyle, and imaging characteristics of osteoarthritis of the temporomandibular joint. The database registration and statistical analysis of the information was carried out through the SPSS statistical program version 23. The results showed that the flattening characteristic is the most frequent. Females are the most predominant sex, and the left condyle is the most affected with osteoarthritis of the temporomandibular joint. The agreement regarding the diagnosis of osteoarthritis of the temporomandibular joint using panoramic radiography and Cone Beam computed tomography is 61.9%. It is concluded that the imaging characteristic of flattening, on the left side and in females, are the most frequent.
