Abstract
Acute dislocation of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is a relatively common occurrence; chronic long-term dislocation is rare. Variance in the duration of dislocation and anatomical considerations make the treatment for long-standing dislocation complex and controversial. This case report describes a new method of conservative management of a long-standing TMJ dislocation using orthodontic mini-implants.
