Abstract:
:This study was aimed at elucidating the changes of mandible symmetry in a rabbit model with low estrogen levels induced by ovariectomy (OVX) combined with temporomandibular joint (TMJ) anterior disc displacement without reduction (ADDWoR). 32 growing rabbits were randomly allocated into 4 groups; OVX group, ADDWoR group, OVX+ ADDWoR group and control group. In OVX and OVX+ ADDWoR groups, bilateral OVX was performed and then the serum level of 17β-estradiol was evaluated every week. In ADDWoR group and OVX+ ADDWoR group, the right TMJ was surgically opened and the disc was displaced anteriorly and the left TMJ was also surgically opened and closed without any manipulation of the disc. All rabbits had CT scan before and at the end of the study and the mandible measurements were performed on the 3D-reconstructed model. The mandible in ADDWoR group was consistently shorter on the right side resulting in a midline shift to the ipsilateral side. While in OVX+ ADDWoR group, the mandibular length of the right side was more shorter than in ADDWoR group, moreover, mandibular deviation was therefore more severe. In OVX group, there was no difference regarding the length of mandible compared to the control group. There was no difference regarding the mandibular length between left and right sides in the control group.
