INTRODUCTION & DEFINITION
• Displacement of condylar head completely out of glenoid fossa; cannot be reduced by patient or
• Complete separation of articular surfaces with fixation of condyle in an abnormal position
• Subluxation with excessive abnormal excursion of CH 2 to flaccidity & laxity of capsule or
• Movt of the CH ant to eminence on wide opening of mouth, can be closed again quite easily [Pogrel 1987] – Habitual luxation

INTRODUCTION & DEFINITION
• Recurrent dislocation xsed by CH sliding over the eminence, catching briefly beyond it & then returns to the fossa [Pogrel 1987]
• Genuine (fixed ) luxation• RD assoc. with neurogenic dislocation
increased tone of masticatory muscles

EPIDEMIOLOGY
• Uncommon condition, occurs in young women
• Common in Yemen b/c of habitual qat chewingexcessive loading of TMJ, diagnosis excursive, masticatory movt to habitual rotational movt osteoarthrosis & atrophy of AE & a shallow GF

AETIOLOGY
Extreme mouth opening- dental & ENT TX, under GA,yawning
Trauma- falls, RTATMJ dx – osteoarthrosis, int.joint
derangementHypermobility assoc. with systemic dx e.g
Ehler’s Danlos syndrome, CT disordersMalocclusion- Angles class 2 div 1

AETIOLOGYOcclusal disharmony- long term over-closure
foll. Edentulism, cos of alveolar bone resorptionIll-fitting denturePsychogenic & neurological disorders e.g
Parkinson’s dx, multiple sclerosis,tardive dyskinesia
Neuroleptic drugs e.g phenothiazine; antiemetic e.g metoclopromide (extrapyramidal effects spasms of jaws & facial muscles
Px with congenitally shallow GF or underdeveloped condyle

DIAGNOSIS
• History of factors causing occlusal disharmony, use of neuroleptic drugs, presence of psychogenic or neurological problems, hyperextension of other joints, familial hx of dislocation
• Examination – check for mandibular prognathism, hollow ant to tragus, palpable CH ant to AE, ant open bite, limited mouth opening, pain in or around TMJ

CLASSIFICATION
• Various existsAcute, chronic & recurrent (Rowe& Killey
1968)Anterior (Heslop 1956)- CH moves ant to
AE; antero- lat variant (moris & Hutton (1957)
Posterior (Helmy 1957)- movt of CH posteriorly, assoc base of skull # or ant wall of bony meatus

CLASSIFICATION
Lateral (Attery & Young 1969)-2 types:Type1 –lateral subluxationType2 – complete dislocation with CH forced laterally & superiorly into temporal fossa ( assoc with parasymphyseal #)
Superior (Zeccha 1977)- displacement of CH into middle cranial fossa ( assoc with # of GF)

INVESTIGATION
• Plain radiographs (TMJ views)– transcraniooblique; reverse towne’s; others: PA ,R & L oblique laterals
• Conventional tomograms– orthopantomogram; plain tomograms (lat)
• Computerized tomograms-3D CT scans• MRI• Ultrasound

TREATMENT-nonsurgical & surgical methods
• Non-surgical methodsBimanual reduction with or without anxiolytics &/or LA, GA. Rest jaw 2-3wksSlow elastic traction with Erich pattern arch bars & post bite plane. Rest jaw for 2-3 weeksChemical capsulorrhaphy using Na psylliate (Schultz 1949) 0.5% 1ml soln of Na tetradecyl sulphate(STD) 3X 2-6wk interval causes pericapsular fibrosis which limit CH excursionInjection of autologous blood into the joint
Injection of botulinium toxin type A

SURGICAL METHODS
• Restitution of ligaments & plication of capsule (surgical capsulorrhaphy). Suture line reinforced by turning down a flap of temporal fascia and securing this to both capsule & ligament
• Limitation of forward movt by ligation of condyle- tying a length of fascia lata or mersilene (Georgiade 1965) both to zygomatic arch & around condylar neck

SURGICAL METHODS• Limitation of forward movt by augmentation of
AE using: bone graft from zygomatic arch, mastoid
process, iliac crest & calvariumCalvarial graft- high quality, low incidence of
resorption, minimal donor site morbidity, etc, contain large amount of bone
Allele graft- L-shaped SS pins (Findlay 1964); vitallium mesh (Howe& Kent 1978); titallium miniplates (silastic implants

SURGICAL METHODS
• Down fracturing of zygomatic archMayer (1933)Leclerc & Girard (1943) vertical osteotomyDautrey & Gosserez (1964) post. slanting
osteotomy• Elimination of dislocation by removal of AE
(Myrrhaug (1951)- px continues to dislocate but reduction by px is automatic & painless-condylectomy(Reidel, condylotomy

SURGICAL METHODS
• Prevention of dislocation by removal of activating muscle
Myotomy- lat pterygoid myotomy+/- discectomy
Temporalis myotomy (Laskin)

COMPLICATIONS
• Relapse / recurrence• Facial nerve palsy• Limited mouth opening• Infection• Pseudoarthrosis• Scar formation
