  • Title: [Reconstructive surgery on the temporomandibular joint within the framework of oral rehabilitation].
    Author: Schüle H.
    Journal: Dtsch Zahnarztl Z; 1977 Feb; 32(2):143-5. PubMed ID: 265243.
    Abstract:
    After conservative functional therapy has failed, two operating methods are applied for oral rehabilitation: 1. Extraarticular bolting of the temporo-mandibular joint (indication: recurrent dislocation/habitual partial dislocation). 2. Reconstructive arthroplasty with a cartilage/bone graft (indication: loss or serious deformation of the mandibular condyle). Functional analysis with a detailed examining method showed a high rate of success with regard to improvement of function and freedom from symptoms.
