Unilateral, Alloplastic Temporomandibular Joint Reconstruction, Biomechanically What Happens to the Contralateral Temporomandibular Joint?—A Prospective Cohort Study

Abstract: Purpose: Unilateral alloplastic total temporomandibular joint reconstruction (TMJR) might influence the contralateral side joint function. This study's purpose was to estimate the risk for contralateral TMJR and the jaw function of the contralateral untreated temporomandibular joint (TMJ).Patients and Methods: A prospective cohort study design was used for patients who underwent unilateral alloplastic TMJR. The primary predictor was time after TMJR, and the secondary predictors were pre-TMJR mandibular angle r… Show more

“…A recent study reported that jaw trackers did not detect differences in TMJ function except some clinical symptoms after orthognathic surgery [23]. It was interesting to also note that the incisal movements were very similar in a reported study by Linsen [20].…”

“…A quantitative assessment of patients who had undergone TMJ replacement was conducted and compared with normal individuals to determine the differences in TMJ function and subjective symptoms. QoL and satisfaction were measured subjectively using a Several studies have reported on the measurement of TMJ function after total joint replacement using a 3D jaw tracking device [18][19][20]24]. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to quantitatively assess patients who have undergone total TMJ replacement using a 3D jaw tracking device and evaluate the condition of the jaws.…”

“…Although is important to point out that the three studies included in the meta-analysis showed high risk of bias. MMO was measured in eleven studies [26,27,39,[41][42][43][44][45]; among these, eight studies reported MMO in millimetres and eventually only three [26][27][28] studies were included in…”
