2022-04-21 | TMJ Surgical Outcomes | Speaker: Andrew Sidebottom

Date: Thursday, April 21, 2022 from 6 to 7 p.m. CEST

Webinar details:

  • The indications for surgery are pain, restriction and locking – and not joint noises
  • Base management on a CLINICAL diagnosis supported by investigations (including MRI)
  • Do not treat radiographs or MRIs, treat patients symptoms and signs
  • MRI findings may be incorrect and outcomes do not correlate with MRI findings
  • A stepwise approach to surgical intervention - conservative, arthroscopy, open surgery, alloplast
  • Confirm your diagnosis with a joint LA injection
  • Approach open surgery with an open mind - Base your intervention on the pathology found
  • Outcomes in TMJ are: 80% get better - conservative, arthroscopy, open surgery
  • There is no point in operating on anyone with a pain score <2/10 and mouth opening >30mm and no locking, you can’t guarantee improvement
  • Alloplastic replacement has a good outcome in surgeons who are trained to use it and do so regularly
  • Conclusions: First do no harm, second don’t repeat what has failed before, third don’t be frightened to ask for advice
