The aim of this study was to identify the incidence of different patterns of temporomandibular joint ankylosis in the south Indian population. Case records of a total of 86000 patients between June 2019 and March 2020 were collected and analyzed from patient records, out of which a total of 7 cases of mandibular temporomandibular joint ankylosis cases who had undergone treatment for the same were identified and included in the present study. All these were checked retrospectively for pattern/type of ankylosis by using the radiographs with Sawhney's classification. Results show that there's a significant male predilection of about 85.7% and shows more unilateral ankylosis cases of about 57.1%. Based on Sawhney's classification it shows 14.3% of type - 1 cases, 42.9% of type - 2 cases, 28.6% of type - 3 cases and 14.3% of type - 4 cases. Within the limitations of this study, it showed that there was a male predilection, unilateral ankylosis cases were common, and among all ankylosis cases Sawhney's type 2 temporomandibular ankylosis cases were high in number.
