Engineering Alloplastic Temporomandibular Joint Replacements
Temporomandibular disorders (TMD) are part of a heterogeneous group of pathologies that manifest with a constellation of signs and symptoms. They are the most frequent cause of chronic orofacial pain and are prevalent in 12% of the general population. Despite the debilitating nature of these disorders, there is no standardization for treatment of the diseased temporomandibular joint (TMJ). In t...
متن کاملManagement of temporomandibular joint ankylosis.
Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) ankylosis is a pathologic condition where the mandible is fused to the fossa by bony or fibrotic tissues. This interferes with mastication, speech, oral hygiene, and normal life activities, and can be potentially life threatening when struggling to acquire an airway in an emergency. Trauma is the most common cause of TMJ ankylosis, followed by infection. Diagnosis ...
متن کاملTotal prosthetic replacement of the temporomandibular joint.
Twenty-seven patients have been operated on for total replacement of the temporomandibular joint because of ankylosis due to trauma, arthritis, neoplasm, infection, or pain. One prosthesis had to be taken out because of gross infection due to Staphylococcus albus, 2 more were removed for pain and dislocation of the prosthesis, and 1 was removed because of erosion through the skin. The remaining...
متن کاملImmediate total temporomandibular joint replacement with TMJ concepts prosthesis as an alternative for ameloblastoma cases.
Ameloblastoma is a common epithelial odontogenic tumor, representing 1 to 3% of all cysts and tumors of the oral and maxillomandibular region. It has been more commonly found in the mandible than in the maxilla. Treatment of ameloblastoma is essentially surgical, ranging from conservative therapy such as enucleation, marsupialization, and curettage, to more radical approaches, including margina...
متن کاملAdvances in temporomandibular joint reconstruction in TMJ ankylosis : Our experiences and literature review
The treatment of temporomandibular joint ankylosis poses a significant challenge because of the high incidence of recurrence .The only treatment option for TMJ ankylosis is surgical with or without condylar reconstruction. Various grafts are available for condylar reconstruction after removing the ankylotic mass such as costochondral, sternoclavicular, posterior border of mandibular ramus, fibu...
