title: [Changes in the temporomandibular joint after orthodontic interventions].
abstract: Temporomandibular joint alterations were reported which were determined on the basis of reproducible preoperative and postoperative roentgenograms. The films were produced with the help of the Hanel. C arch in the transcranial, lateral oblique projection. Displacements were demonstrated particularly in the anterior and the caudal directions. This method however does not allow a definite statement to be made concerning the postoperative position of the condyles.
