Inclusion Criteria:

  • Patients without relevant disease
  • Patients refractory to conservative treatment > 6 months.
  • Patients are diagnosed, with unilateral/bilateral anterior disc displacement without reduction, clinically and by MRI recently.
  • No previous TMJ surgery.
  • No previous maxillofacial trauma.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patients with systemic joint disease (rheumatoid, osteoarthritis, gouts).
  • Medically compromised patients contraindicating operation.
  • Patients to whom general anesthesia is contraindicated.
  • Patient with neuromuscular disorders.
  • Patients with any gross pathology of the ear.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Change in wound healing
The sutured wounds will be examined after one and two weeks for signs and symptoms of infection including swelling, redness, hotness, pus discharge, and pain in addition to observation for any manifestations of wound healing disturbance, as wound dehiscence and hardware exposure.
Change in TMJ clinical dysfunction
Helkimo's dysfunction index is used, including the interincisal opening of the mandible, deviation during the opening, dysfunction of TMJ, pain in the TMJ and preauricular region, and also masticatory muscles were palpated for pain during the follow-up periods.
disc position
MRI assessment by proton-density (PD), Evaluation by MRI will be done after 3 months to assure disc position.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
Temporomandibular joint internal derangement (TMJ ID) is the most frequent type of temporomandibular disorder (TMDs)which is managed by different therapeutic modalities. it begins with conservative methods like medical treatment, physiotherapy, thermotherapy, and bites appliance therapy. Surgical intervention is a controversial issue in cases not responding to conservative methods. A novel minimally invasive surgical technique which is extracapsular trans oral (Pterygomaxillary disjunction) has been advocated as a minimally invasive extracapsular technique that preserves TMJ integrity.

Arm Type
Experimental
Intervention Type
Procedure
Intervention Name(s)
Pterygomaxillary disjunction with interposition Y-shape plate
Intervention Description
All patients will be treated under general anesthesia. The pterygoid plate will be fractured, pried up, and pushed backward. A Y-shape plate will be fixed to the lateral maxillary surface with its vertical limb and the other two limbs are turned to fit into the retro maxillary space preventing the reattachment of the fractured pterygoid plate
