Title: Skeletal remodelling in the temporomandibular joint after oblique sliding osteotomy of the mandibular rami. Author: Eckerdal O, Sund G, Astrand P. Journal: Int J Oral Maxillofac Surg; 1986 Jun; 15(3):233-9. PubMed ID: 3088149. Abstract: Skeletal remodelling of the temporomandibular joints took place in 80% of cases after oblique sliding osteotomies of the rami. The new bone formation was found in both the condylar and temporal parts of the joint. It was mostly located on the posterior surface of the condyle and in the roof of the temporal part of the joint. No differences in skeletal remodelling were found between wiring and nonwiring cases.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
