Abstract
|
|
|
|
Treatment of orthodontic patients with idiopathic condylar resorption (ICR) is challenging for orthodontists due to the continuous change of occlusion caused by the unstable condylar position as well as the symptoms in the temporomandibular joint (TMJ). As an unstable condylar position makes clinicians lose the criteria for occlusal treatment, stabilization of TMJ with splint therapy should precede any occlusal treatment. This article presents a recommended protocol of orthodontic treatment in a patient with ICR.
