Arthrocentesis of temporomandibular joint- Bridging the gap between non-surgical and surgical treatment

Abstract: The temporomandibular joint forms one of the most fascinating and complex synovial joints in the body. Movements of the temporomandibular joint are regulated by an intricate neurological controlling mechanism, which is essential for the system to function normally and efficiently. Lack of such harmony may cause disruptive muscle behavior or structural damage to any of the components. The management of refractory pain and dysfunctions in the temporomandibular joint poses challenge both to the oral physician and… Show more

“…Our study excluded those patients who had received any of these therapies during the three months preceding the study, except for "adhoc" analgesic pharmacotherapy without anti-inflammatory components. We have also excluded from this study the patients with local contraindications to intra-articular injections, according to the results of the review by Soni et al [12]. These are abscess, inflammation or tumor of the skin, connective tissue or bone of the puncture site, bleeding diathesis or acquired coagulopathies, blood infections, and malignant tumors.…”

“…Several approaches are described in the literature for MITMJ surgery. The major drawbacks of the common anterior approaches are potential complications such as facial nerve injury or otic injury [ 10 ]. A solution to this problem was suggested by Moses et al and their endaural approach to the TMJ [ 5 ].…”

The major drawback of the common approaches from anterior are potential complications such as facial nerve injury or otic injury [10]. A solution to this problem was suggested by Moses et al and their endaural approach to the TMJ [5].…”
