5 天之前 · This study aims to assess the therapeutic efficacy of a modified arthroscopy discopexy suturing technique in combination with an anterior disc repositioning splint (ARS) for the treatment of early phase anterior disc displacement without reduction (ADDwoR) patients.

Magnetic resonance imaging showed discs repositioned in both sagittal and coronal images for 714 of the 749 joints, giving a success rate of 95.3%. This study reports an effective and predictable technique of arthroscopic discopexy for rotational anterior disc displacement.

Internal joint derangement is a disruption of the internal aspects of the TMJ—disc displacements/adhesions/impingements, causing alterations in the normal dynamic motions of the joint. Clinicians must be diligent in establishing the correct diagnosis and cause of TMJID, which ultimately leads to the appropriate management of such patients.

2023年1月1日 · Arthroscopic discopexy is an important therapeutic modality in the treatment of TMJ internal derangement as an alternative to open TMJ surgery and can be very effective at eliminating symptoms of pain, joint clicking, limited mouth opening, and mandibular dysfunction in cases where non-surgical treatment has been unsuccessful.

2025年1月8日 · Anterior disc displacement without reduction (ADDwoR) is one of the most common types temporomandibular disorders (TMD), which is often characterized by joint pain, abnormal joint sounds, and limited mouth opening. Disc repositioning has been described as an effective method to reduce joint pain and improve range of motion.

The aim of this study was to investigate the clinical results and efficacy of an arthroscopic approach to correct anterior displacement of the disc without reduction of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) with limitation of mouth opening.

Disc displacement is a common disorder of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) that often results in progressive joint dysfunction, including clicking, arthralgia, functional limitations, osteoarthritis, and even condylar resorption. Several arthroscopic techniques …

Arthroscopic disc repositioning (ADR) of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) has been proven to be clinically successful with minimal morbidity for the patient. The main disadvantage of ADR is its long learning curve, that leads only highly experienced TMJ arthroscopists performing it …

Disc displacement (DD) is a common disorder of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) that often results in progressive joint dysfunction, including clicking, arthralgia, functional limitations, osteoarthritis, and even condylar resorption 1,2. An estimated 36% of the general population has concerns about DD.

2 天之前 · Anterior disc displacement of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is one of the most common TMJ disorders which can be classified into two categories: with and without reduction (ADDwR/ADDwoR) 1, 2, 3 ...
