Disc repositioning by open suturing vs. mini-screw anchor: stability analysis when combined with orthognathic surgery for hypoplastic condyles

Abstract Background Disc repositioning by Mitek anchors for anterior disc displacement (ADD) combined with orthognathic surgery gained more stable results than when disc repositioning was not performed. But for hypoplastic condyles, the implantation of Mitek anchors may cause condylar resorption. A...
