Hyaluronate for temporomandibular joint disorders

Viscosupplementation as a treatment of internal derangements of the temporomandibular joint: retrospective study

“…During the monitoring of the reported cases, viscosupplementation demonstrated to be an efficient treatment to control pain in patients with RDD, NRDD and OA. This result is consonant with those presented by several authors 4,[6][7][8][9] . Furthermore, viscosupplementation improved mandibular function of patients with limited mouth opening caused by RDD and OA, corroborating others 5,9 .…”

“…Most common complaints were mild soreness, edema and open bite at the injection side. However in all cases sideeffects were self-limiting confirming other authors' findings 8 .…”

“…Control group received 0.5mL of prednisolone 2.5% with 1ml of bupivacaine 1% once a week, total of three or four injections. During 5 weeks monitoring period both groups presented significant improvement of pain and function, with no statistically significant difference between them 8 . A randomized double-blind clinical trial evaluated 41 patients with rheumatoid arthritis in the temporomandibular joints, dividing them in three groups: 14 individuals were treated with intra-articular SH injections; 14 with corticosteroid injections; 13 with saline solution injection.…”

Nonsurgical management of temporomandibular joint autoimmune disorders

“…Complications were mild and transient and included pain or discomfort in injection site in hyaluronate group. No significant improvement in quality of life was observed in hyaluronate group [74].…”

A comparative study for the efficiency of the Platelet-rich plasma and hyaluronic acid in treatment of temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis

“…A previous study on 36 patients with TMJ-OA found that arthrocentesis obviated the need for corrective surgery in 68.4% of the patients who do not responded to other nonsurgical treatment and were candidates for surgery. It significantly increased MMO and significantly decreased the subjectively assessed pain and dysfunction (6) .…”
