Management of Long Standing TMJ Dislocation: Report of Three Cases
Journal Title: Journal of Advanced Medical and Dental Sciences Research - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 2
Abstract
Chronic long standing dislocation of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is a relatively rare occurrence. Variation in the duration of dislocation and anatomical considerations make the treatment for long-standing dislocation very complex. In this paper we present three cases of long standing TMJ dislocation and review of literature with treatment options for chronic TMJ dislocation.
