Abstract

Many researchers believe that bone changes in the condyle and joint effusion are significantly related to anterior disk displacement (ADD), especially to anterior disk displacement without reduction (ADDWoR). The risk of bone changes in joints with ADDWoR has been found to be 4 times greater than the risk in joints with normal disk position. This study evaluated treatment outcomes after performance of unilateral arthrocentesis and stabilization splint therapy in patients with bilateral ADDWoR and erosive change of the TMJ.
