| Popis: | Background: Minimal intrusive TMJ operations have been recommended as a substitute for conservative therapy when conservative measures fail to relieve significant acute pain, chronic discomfort, inflammation, and/or degenerative illness, specifically in TMD cases. Aim: This study was conducted to investigate minimally invasive approaches (TMJ arthrocentesis and TMJ arthroscopy) in the treatment of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders. Methods and Materials: It was a prospective study which included 30 clinically and radiographically diagnosed cases of TMDs. The study participants underwent two main therapy was carried out: TMJ arthrocentesis and TMJ arthroscopy. There was assessment of pain through VAS scale and maximum mouth opening (MMO) 1 month preoperatively as well as 3 months postoperatively. Results: There was statistically significant decrease in mean VAS score and increase in MMO in patients treated with TMJ arthrocentesis and TMJ arthroscopy. When there is comparison between TMJ arthrocentesis and TMJ arthroscopy, then there was more reduction in pain and increase in MMO in TMJ arthroscopy; however, the difference was non-significant statistically at both preoperative and postoperative situations. Conclusion: Minimally invasive approaches like TMJ arthrocentesis and TMJ arthroscopy can be useful in the treatment of TMJ disorders. |
