Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Time to Revision | 3 years | Time from surgical alloplastic reconstruction of the TMJ to revision surgery (Re-operation or removal) |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| jaw pain intensity (VAS score) | 1 year, 1.5 years | Pain level is recored in a 10 cm line according the intensity of pain, where zero on the far left represents no pain and 10 on the far right, represent the maximum level of pain experienced |
| Interference with eating | 1 year, 1.5 years | Interference of eating is recored in a 10 cm line according the intensity of the interference with eating, where zero on the far left represents no interference with eating and 10 on the far right, represent the maximum level of interference with eating experienced |
| Maximun Incisal Opening | 1 year, 1.5 years | Maximum Incisal Opening (MIO) is the distance measured in millimeters (mm) from the incisal edge of the maxillary central incisors to the incisal edge of the mandibular central incisors at the midline with the mouth wide open. |
| Patient Satisfaction | 6 months, 1 year, 1.5 years, and 3 years | Patient satisfaction is the level of comfort with the TMJ reconstruction that a given patient experiences. It is expressed as very satisfied, satisfied, dissatisfied or failure |
