RWK Yeung, RLK Chow, N Samman, K Chiu - Oral Surgery, Oral Medicine …, 2006 - Elsevier
In a patient with temporomandibular disorder who does not respond to conservative
treatment, treatment with intra-articular injection of high molecular weight sodium
hyaluronate can be suggested. In our study, 27 patients with nonreduced disc displacement
were diagnosed clinically and confirmed by magnetic resonance imaging. The age range
was from 21 to 63 years old, with a mean of 39.3 years. Two cycles of injection of high
molecular weight sodium hyaluronate was performed on alternative weeks. Pain intensity …
