Background: End-stage diseases of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) represent a reconstructive challenge. The function and form of the TMJ is important for mastication, speech, deglutition, airway support, facial esthetics, psychological development, and quality of life. The surgeon presented with any of these scenarios currently has 2 replacement options, either autogenous or alloplastic. The purpose of this article is to report the University of Torino experience and to review the literature on the on the management of failed autogenous tissues using TMJ prostheses.

“…Costochondral grafts are the current standard of care in replacing the temporomandibular joint in the growing child. 10 If surgery is performed, however, the importance of postoperative physical therapy cannot be overstated. Physical therapy needs to start early after surgery, needs to be prolonged, and needs to comprise aggressive physical exercises to maintain the best possible result.…”

Summary: Congenital zygomaticomaxillomandibular (ZMM) fusion is an extremely rare and debilitating condition. Fusion of the jaws results in a severe limitation of the mouth opening accompanied by breathing and feeding difficulties. Mandibular fusions to the maxilla, palate, zygoma, and temporal bone are described in literature. We present the case of 4-year-old girl diagnosed with congenital unilateral ZMM fusion. She was treated surgically at 1 year and at 4 and a half years to release the fusion and to improve mouth opening. Second surgery was indicated due to recurrence. Management of young patients with congenital maxillomandibular fusion is challenging. The scarcity of cases makes formulating practice guidelines very difficult. If surgery is performed, the importance of postoperative physical therapy cannot be overstated. The goal of this article is to emphasize the risk of recurrence in ZMM fusion after surgical treatment and importance of regular follow-up.

“…TENS also provide activation of opiate-like peptides such as endorphins. Apart from medical uses TENS has been used actively to relieve the pain in dentistry, which includes pain in TMD 18 , dental treatment in pediatric patients 19 , tooth pulp related pain 20 , trigeminal Neuralgia 21 , TMJ ankylosis 22 , Myofascial pain dysfunction syndrome, post-herpetic neuralgia, 23 in patients with xerostomia 24,25 and also for orthodontic pain, although the studies for orthodontic pain are sparse.…”

Introduction: Transcranial electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) is being used to relieve pain in various specialties for ages but till date, no concurrent evidence is achieved on the efficacy of this method to relieve pain, still it is used as a non-pharmacological method of pain relief. For orthodontic pain relief the literature is scanty, as the studies conducted are also very less, hence we conducted this metanalysis to pool the results of these scanty studies and achieve some concurrent evidence of TENS efficacy in pain relief caused due to orthodontic tooth movement. Material and methods: Medline/PubMed, Cochrane, and google scholar were searched for the studies of TENS use in orthodontic tooth movement. Studies having data for 24 hrs. and 48 hrs. after application of tens device were included. The results were scaled and pooled and statistical analysis was done by using python and SPSS software. Results and discussion: Our results were statistically highly significant in favor of TENS with a p-value of 0.0001 indicating that TENS is highly effective in orthodontic pain relief. Conclusion: TENS is highly effective in relieving pain from orthodontic tooth movement.
