Eligibility

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: patients with unilateral or bilateral temporomandibular joint ankylosis

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: 1. Recurrent ankylosis 2. Ankylosis due to systemic conditions like rheumatoid arthritis 3. Age >12 years 4. Patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome 5. Patients refusing consent for follow up

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
growth in joints with costochondral graft interposition arthroplasty for significant superiority over adequate growth in joints with gap arthroplasty treatmentTimepoint: Primary outcome will be assessed by radiographs taken at different follow-up (immediately postoperative, at 1 month, 6 month, 12-months and yearly thereafter). Panoramic radiograph will be taken to observe for heterotopic bone formation.—

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
functional outcomes of gap arthroplasty in the management of temporomandibular ankylosis. evaluate the functional outcomes of interposition arthroplasty with costochondral graft in the management of temporomandibular ankylosis. compare the functional outcomes of both the treatment modalities in the management of temporomandibular ankylosis.Timepoint: 6,12,18,24 months—
