Disc Anchoring with an Orthodontic Mini-Screw for Chronic Meniscocondylar Dislocation of TMJ

Abstract: Introduction Various surgical modalities have been tried for the correction of chronic recurrent dislocation of the temporomandibular joint. However, most of these techniques are aimed at creating an artificial block or removing any interference in the path of the translating condyle. Chronic dislocation can also be classified as meniscotemporal and menisocondylar, depending upon whether the dislocation occurs between the condyle-disc unit and temporal bone (meniscotemporal), or between the disc and condyle (m… Show more

“…There are also several methods for the management of TMJ articular disc dislocation. A commonly used method to reestablish the relationship between the condyle and the glenoid fossa is discopexy, which is repositioning of the articular disc by anchoring the disc to the condyle using mini anchors [11]. The present case report used the post-auricular approach to remove loose anchors in the right TMJ region due to an active fistula in the pre-auricular approach region.…”
