[Correction of true ankylosis of TMJ with semi-joint replacement using non-biological materials]
Abstract:
The goal of treating true ankylosis of TMJ was to reconstruct the function of the joint and to prevent relapse. The authors have operated on 26 patients with true ankylosis of TMJ using semi-joint replacement of compound non-biological materials. Functionally and cosmetically good results were demonstrated after two to thirteen months' follow-up.
