[Experimental and clinical substantiation of allogenic cortical bone matrix use for treatment of patients with habitual mandibular dislocation].
Cortical bone matrix (CBM) was fixed under the zygomatic arch of 20 experimental rabbits by the titanium wire. CBM transformed into the organotypic bone tissue during 90-180 days, and the transformation processes were more significant if the cortical layer of the inferior border of the zygomatic arch had been removed and CBM had been miotisized. Taking into account good results of the experiment, CBM was applied in clinic for treatment of habitual mandibular dislocation (HMD). The new operative approach to the TMJ and method for HMD using CBM was developed. It is easy to perform, less traumatic and provides reliable long-term results. Of 36 operated joint only one recurrence of the dislocation was observed.
