Obstructive sleep apnoea is a relatively common sleep disorder that is popularly associated with snoring and excessive daytime sleepiness. It is a disorder with serious implications that has only in the last two decades received the attention of clinical specialists. The aim of this article is to review the role of the dental profession in the recognition and management of this disorder. 相似文献

Surgery of the temporomandibular joint has a small but nonetheless important role in the overall management of temporomandibular disorders. Appropriate case selection is the mandatory requirement for successful surgical intervention in order to achieve the desired outcome of treatment, such as relief of symptoms and improved function. In this, the third article in the series, a general overview of the current surgical treatment modalities for temporomandibular disorders will be presented. 相似文献

There are many treatment modalities for temporomandibular disorders (TMD), most of which are effective in controlling symptoms, at least in the short term. The non-surgical treatment of temporomandibular disorders continues to be the most effective way of managing over 80 per cent of patients who present with symptoms of temporomandibular pain and dysfunction. In this, the second article in the series, a general overview of the current non-surgical treatment strategies for TMD will be presented. 相似文献

PURPOSE: The aims of this retrospective clinical study were to compare the management of unilateral angle fractures of the mandible using the traditional approach of open reduction with internal fixation (ORIF) and intermaxillary wire fixation (IMF) with the technique of ORIF without IMF. PATIENTS AND MATERIALS: Thirty-one patients who presented with isolated unilateral angle fractures of the mandible were randomly divided into 2 treatment groups. Both groups underwent open reduction with a single upper border miniplate and screw fixation (ORIF). Eleven of the 31 patients in the study had IMF to aid in the fracture reduction, and 20 patients had no IMF so the fracture was reduced by hand manipulation. Records of operating and discharge times, postreduction radiographs, and occlusal outcomes were examined and tabulated. RESULTS: Patients in both treatment groups were closely matched in terms of age, gender, site of injury (ie, isolated angle fracture of mandible), and incidence of teeth in the fracture line. The mean operating time for traditional ORIF with IMF of angle fractures of the mandible was 98.5 minutes, and these patients were discharged an average of 1.82 days after surgery. The mean operating time for ORIF of angle fractures of the mandible without the use of IMF was 40.2 minutes, and these patients were discharged an average of 1.35 days after surgery. Postoperative outcomes in terms of the postreduction anatomic alignment of the fractures and functional occlusion at 6 weeks were similar in the 2 treatment groups. CONCLUSIONS: We found that the use of IMF for the management of angle fractures of the mandible is unnecessary provided there is a skilled assistant present to help manually reduce the fracture site for plating. Discarding the use of IMF not only helps improve patient comfort but also reduces the operating time by up to 1 hour and accelerates discharge times by up to half a day. 相似文献
