Area of Science:

  • Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
  • Orthodontics
  • Pain Management

Background:

  • Chronic disc displacement without reduction can cause persistent temporomandibular joint (TMJ) pain.
  • TMJ surgery is typically a last resort for severe, refractory symptoms.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the efficacy of modified meniscopexy for chronic disc displacement without reduction.
  • To assess outcomes in patients who failed non-surgical pain management.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective study of 59 temporomandibular joints treated with modified meniscopexy.
  • Most patients (58/59) underwent splint-assisted bilateral meniscopexy.
  • One patient received splint-assisted unilateral meniscopexy.

Main Results:

  • All patients reported improvement in pain and function post-treatment.
  • Clinical examinations and questionnaires confirmed positive outcomes.

Conclusions:

  • Modified meniscopexy is an effective treatment for chronic disc displacement without reduction.
  • This surgical intervention offers significant relief for patients with persistent TMJ pain.
