title: [Programmed multichannel bioelectrical management in the treatment of children with secondary osteoarthrosis deformans of the temporomandibular joint under computed tomographic control].
abstract: Programmed multichannel bioelectrical regulation was used in the treatment of 19 children aged 5 to 14 with osteoarthrosis deformans of the temporomandibular joint. The treatment resulted in amelioration of the joint function in all the patients: opening of the mouth increased by an average of 7.5 mm, the volume and density of the lateral and medial pterygoid muscles increased, and the density of osseous tissue of the joint process decreased.
