Abstract

Temporomandular joint (TMJ dislocation is considered as any involuntary excessive movement of the mandible to the extend that the condyle gets locked infront of articular eminence resulting in inability to close the mouth. Literature review shows that numerous management options are available to treat TMJ dislocation ranging from conservative to open surgical and arthroscopic interventions. Even though advanced methods like arthroplastic eminoplasty are practised, Dautery’s procedure still remains as one of the most accepted modality. In this case report a case of reccurent TMJ dislocation treated by Dautrey’s procedure is presented.
