Area of Science:

  • Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
  • Orthodontics
  • Arthroscopy Procedures

Background:

  • Conservative and pharmacologic treatments are standard for temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders.
  • Some patients do not respond to non-surgical TMJ interventions.
  • Open joint surgery for TMJ disorders carries significant risks and prolonged recovery.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the efficacy of temporomandibular joint arthroscopy and arthrocentesis.
  • To present these techniques as alternatives to open joint surgery for refractory TMJ cases.

Main Methods:

  • Technologic advancements in temporomandibular joint (TMJ) arthroscopy.
  • Application of arthrocentesis techniques for TMJ treatment.

Main Results:
