Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To assess the long-term follow-up of patients successfully treated for disc displacement with anterior repositioning splint therapy and patients successfully treated for pain dysfunction syndrome with stabilisation therapy. DESIGN:Retrospective analysis. SETTING:Dental school clinic unit. METHODS:Maintenance of improvement was assessed by a postal questionnaire or by direct telephone contact 3 years after cessation of splint treatment. RESULTS:90% of patients successfully treated for disc displacement with reduction and 88% of patients successfully treated for pain dysfunction reported maintenance of improvement after 3 years. In both groups the reported improvement was independent of the pattern of splint usage. CONCLUSIONS:The short-term use of an appropriate occlusal splint for a specific temporomandibular disorder leads to a long-term resolution of the problem.
