Dislocation of the mandible in a 47 year old patient Klaudia Brożyna1, Jędrzej Tkaczyk1, Tomasz Bąk2, Jolanta Wojciechowicz2, Anna Gawęda2, Marcin Baran2, Tomasz Tomaszewski2 Student's Research Circle, Chair and Clinic of Maxillofacial Surgery, Medical University of Lublin Chair and Clinic of Maxillofacial Surgery, Medical University of Lublin Abstract: Dislocation of mandible is relatively uncommon disorder of temporomandibular joints. Disorder can occur during extreme dilation of mouth such as yawing, during dental treatments or endoscopic examination. 47- year old patient was admitted to the Department of Maxillo-facial Surgery in case of bilateral mandible dislocation. In this case the reposition in general anaesthesia was performed but ended up with failure. Key words: dislocation, temporomandibular joint, reposition Introduction: Dislocation of the mandible is relatively uncommon disorder of temporomandibular joints [1]. The main reason of that phenomen is displacement of condylar process beside temporomandibular joint with fixation in this position, with any possibility to return to correct location [2,3]. The most frequent is an anterior dislocation, usually bilateral, in which condylar process is in the front of articular tubercles [4]. Disorder can occur during extreme dilation of mouth such as yawing, during dental treatment or endoscopic examination [5,6]. People with changes in the construction of condylar process are most predisposed to have dislocations. The modifications of condyle contain flattening, decrease the height of the articular surface and also inappropriate structure of zygomatic arch or squamotympanic fissure [7].
