Jaw dislocation means dislocation of the Temporomandibular Joint.
Jaw dislocation means dislocation of the Temporomandibular Joint.
Jaw Dislocation is a condition where lower jaw (condyle of lower jaw) moves forward out of its functional position within skull bone (glenoid fossa of temporal bone) to come and lie infront of the articular eminence and gets locked in this position. It leads to stretching of the ligaments and severe spasm of the muscles resulting insevere pain in mouth and the facewith inability to close the mouth. The resultant spasm prevents the condyle from returning back to its natural and normal position.
Temporo- mandibular joint (TMJ) is located on both sides of face, just in front of the ears and connects our lower jaw (the mandible) to the skull bone (temporal bone). TM Joint- slides as well as rotates and assist in movements like chewing and speaking.
Temporo-mandibular joint (TMJ) is unique as joint on both the sides of face functions as one unit. Since TMJ is connected to the mandible, the right and left joints must function together and therefore are not independent of each other. It hasgliding function (side to side) and hinging (front and back) function. During all the movements of the jaw, only the lower jaw moves
TM Joint Dislocation may be reducible if the condyle returns spontaneously (subluxation) or irreducible when one or two condyles remain dislocated (luxation).
Jaw dislocation can be acute and sudden or chronic and recurrent.
