Traumatic dislocation of the mandibular condyle into the middle cranial fossa treated by an intraoral approach

open access: yesJournal of the Formosan Medical Association, 2019
Dislocation of the mandibular condyle is one of several consequences of facial trauma that can be anticipated. The condylar neck is inherently weak and likely to fracture at the time of impact before dislocating into the middle cranial fossa. A review of

Form-function relationships in dragonfly mandibles under an evolutionary perspective [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
© 2017 The Author(s). Functional requirements may constrain phenotypic diversification or foster it. For insect mouthparts, the quantification of the relationship between shape and function in an evolutionary framework remained largely unexplored.

Treatment of mandibular condyle fractures using a modified transparotid approach via the parotid mini-incision: experience with 31 cases. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Surgery for mandibular condyle fractures must allow direct vision of the fracture, reduce surgical trauma and achieve reduction and fixation while avoiding facial nerve injury. This prospective study was conducted to introduce a new surgical approach for

Bilateral bifid mandibular condyle associated with ankylosis of the temporomandibular joint in a 6-year-old child

open access: yesRadiology Case Reports, 2022
Bifid mandibular condyle with ankylosis is an extremely rare condition and may arise as a developmental or traumatic defect. We report here a case of bilateral bifid mandibular condyle with ankylosis in a 6-year-old child.

Magnetic resonance imaging observation of bone marrow edema of the mandibular condyle in patients with temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis

open access: yesJournal of Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology, 2014
Purpose: The purpose of the study was to demonstrate the relationship between bone marrow edema of the mandibular condyle and osteoarthritic changes of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) in a group of symptomatic patients using magnetic resonance imaging (

On the Analysis of the Contact Conditions in Temporomandibular Joint Prostheses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Temporomandibular joint replacement (TMJR) is a complex surgical procedure in which the artificial joints available must assure the anatomical reconstruction and guarantee a good range of the natural temporomandibular joint (TMJ) movements. With this aim,

Factors involved in mandibular condylar growth: an overview [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Although functional appliances have been widely adopted for clinical modulation of mandibular growth for nearly a century, the underlying regulatory mechanism of mandibular condyle growth have been under investigation. Over these years, studies have been

The three-dimensional morphology of mandible and glenoid fossa as contributing factors to menton deviation in facial asymmetry—retrospective study

open access: yesProgress in Orthodontics, 2020
Background The aim of this study is to evaluate whether the three-dimensional (3D) morphology of the mandibular condyle, glenoid fossa, and mandible correlated with menton deviation in facial asymmetry. Subjects and methods Thirty adults (15 males and 15
