[The relationship between temporomandibular joint disc displacement and condylar resorption and the comprehensive treatment protocol]. Zhonghua Kou Qiang Yi Xue Za Zhi. 2017 Mar 09;52(3):157-160 Authors: Yang C Abstract Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) anterior disc displacement (ADD) is one of the most common TMJ disease. However, the treatment of ADD have been far from reaching a consensus. In this article, we focused on the following three aspects: ①The relationship between ADD and condylar resorption. ②Whether disc reposition can stop condylar resorption or even make condylar regeneration. ③Proposing a more reasonable treatment pattern, that is TMJ-jaw-occlusion comprehensive treatment protocol.
