Popis: | Objectives This article evaluated a new technique for the treatment of recurrent temporomandibular joint (TMJ) dislocation through augmentation of the articular eminence using a newly designed plate called condylar block plate. Methods We developed a new titanium plate called condylar block plate (condylar anti-dislocation plate), composed of three main parts: block, plate, and neck parts. The primary function is achieved by the block part, which is 5 mm thickness, 7 mm height, and 10 mm width. It is fixed to the zygomatic arch through the plate part. The purpose of the plate achieved by augmenting the articular eminence. We treat Eight patients diagnosed with chronic recurrent TMJ dislocation by using the newly designed condylar block plate. Results All cases had a successful outcome with no recurrences and required no further treatment at their 12 months follow-up. Conclusion This procedure has proven to be safe and straightforward for the treatment of chronic recurrent TMJ dislocation. |
