The Temporomandibular Joint in a Rheumatoid Arthritis Patient after Orthodontic Treatment
Angle Orthodontist , 03/10/09
Sasaguri K et al. - This case suggests that an orthodontic, rather than a surgical, approach to eliminate molar interference, change occlusal contacts, and reconstruct a stable functional occlusion was associated with a functional remodeling of destroyed condyles. This occurred by reducing their mechanical loads at the same time that the open bite condition was corrected by anterior mandibular rotation. These changes remained stable in the postretention period(functional repositioning), even though this middle-aged patient had a history of RA of the TMJ.
