Coronoid process hyperplasia: an unusual cause of mandibular hypomobility [PDF]
A large number of disorders affecting the masticatory system can cause restriction of mouth opening. The most common conditions related to this problem are those involving the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) and the masticatory muscles, when facial pain also is an usual finding.

Mandibular Movement Restoration in a Child with Bilateral Coronoid Hyperplasia: A Case Report. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Coronoid process hyperplasia is an uncommon finding, characterized by an enlargement of the coronoid process, causing a mechanical obstacle by its interposing in the posterior portion of the maxilla or zygomatic arch.CASE PRESENTATION: The ...

Mouth opening limitation caused by coronoid hyperplasia: a report of four cases. [PDF]
Coronoid process hyperplasia is a rare condition that causes mouth opening limitation, otherwise known as trismus. The elongated coronoid processes impinge on the medial surfaces of the zygomatic arches when opening the mouth, which limits movement of ...

Three Dimensional Morphological Grading of Ankylosed TMJ for Surgical Planning: A Retrospective Observational Study [PDF]
Introduction: Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) ankylosis remains an enigma in craniofacial surgery due to the challenges encountered while restoring mouth opening, facial form and airway to normalcy.

Biomechanics of 12 finite element (FE) models of fractured and surgical elbows were simulated. The pull‐out force and rotation torque of screw fixations were ranked by finite element model (FEM). Two new stability factors of screw fixations were determined by FEM sensitivity test.

Regulatory role of human fibrocartilage stem cells in condyle osteochondroma
This study reports that human fibrocartilage stem cells are the potential cell‐of‐origin of condylar osteochondroma. Activated PI3K/AKT signalling pathway regulates cell apoptosis of hFCSCs and further affects stem cell function, which leads to cartilage pathological disorder and hypertrophy.

CBCT Findings in Different Types of Temporomandibular Joint Ankylosis [PDF]
Background: Ankylosis of temporomandibular joint describes the pathological development of bony connections or fibrosis that occurs in the region between the condylar head of the mandible and the glenoid fossa of the temporal bone.

Fgf8 dosage regulates jaw shape and symmetry through pharyngeal‐cardiac tissue relationships
Abstract Background Asymmetries in craniofacial anomalies are commonly observed. In the facial skeleton, the left side is more commonly and/or severely affected than the right. Such asymmetries complicate treatment options. Mechanisms underlying variation in disease severity between individuals as well as within individuals (asymmetries) are still ...

Fibrodysplasia ossificans progressive (FOP) is a rare cause of temporomandibular joint ankylosis (TMJA). Temporomandibular joint ankylosis in FOP is an absolute contraindication for surgery since surgery (including routine dental procedures) may lead to recurrence and exacerbation of the condition. Atraumatic dental treatment, preventive dentistry, and
