EFFECTS OF TEMPOROMANDIBULAR JOINT ANKYLOSIS ON DENTITION AND RAMUS HEIGHT
View through CrossRef
Objective:To determine dentition related problems in patients with TMJ ankylosis and to establish effect of TMJ ankylosis on ramus height.Material and method:This descriptive study was conducted at Khyber College of Dentistry, Peshawar Pakistan, from July 2020 to July 2021. Medical records and Cone beam computed tomography of 20 patients with the diagnosis of temporomandibular joint ankylosis were included in the study.Results: Most of the patients presented with unilateral TMJ ankylosis (n=15, 75%) In unilateral ankylosis, the affected side ramus and body (4.89cm, 7.63cm respectively) were less than the non-affected sides (5.54cm, 8.15cm) respectively. Dentition crowding with malposed teeth was present in all bilateral TMJ ankylosis patients and 9 patients in unilateral cases. Conclusion:This study established the effect of TMJ ankylosis on the dentition and ramus height. The height of the ramus was deficient on the affected side and the erupted teeth were crowded in most of the patients.

Medical records and Cone beam computed tomography of 20 patients with the diagnosis of temporomandibular joint ankylosis were included in the study.
Results: Most of the patients presented with unilateral TMJ ankylosis (n=15, 75%) In unilateral ankylosis, the affected side ramus and body (4.
89cm, 7.
63cm respectively) were less than the non-affected sides (5.
54cm, 8.
15cm) respectively.
Dentition crowding with malposed teeth was present in all bilateral TMJ ankylosis patients and 9 patients in unilateral cases.
Conclusion:This study established the effect of TMJ ankylosis on the dentition and ramus height.
The height of the ramus was deficient on the affected side and the erupted teeth were crowded in most of the patients.
