The temporomandibular joint (TMJ) has many essential functions. None of its components are exempt from injury. Facial asymmetry, malocclusion, disturbances in growth, osteoarthritis, and ankylosis can manifest as complications from trauma to the TMJ. The goals of initial treatment include achievement of pretraumatic function, restoration of facial symmetry, and resolution of pain. These same objectives hold true for late repairs and reconstruction of the TMJ apparatus. Treatment is demanding, and with opposing approaches. The following article explores various treatment options for problems presenting as a result of a history of trauma to the TMJ.
颞下颌关节(TMJ)具有许多重要功能。其任何组成部分都可能受伤。面部不对称、咬合不正、生长紊乱、骨关节炎和关节强直都可能表现为颞下颌关节创伤的并发症。初始治疗的目标包括恢复创伤前的功能、恢复面部对称性以及消除疼痛。这些目标同样适用于颞下颌关节装置的晚期修复和重建。治疗要求很高,且存在相反的治疗方法。以下文章探讨了因颞下颌关节创伤史而出现问题的各种治疗选择。
