Title : Treatment algorithm for temporomandibular joint disc displacement
Abstract:
Temporomandibular joint disorders are common and disc displacement is one of the most common intra-articular disorders of our temporomandibular joint. Often this patient group is treated with a splint, but in many cases, this does not lead to success. What are the limitations of non-surgical procedures like physiotherapy or splint therapy? What are the indications for a surgical approach? What are the success factors for a surgical procedure?
Besides different clinical cases, an algorithm will be presented like we treat patients in our TMJ clinic.
