35세 여자환자가 갑작스런 개구장애와 함께 발생한 급성 교합변화를 주소로 내원하였다. 환자는 이전 수년 동안의 관절잡음의 병력을 가지고 있었으며 관절잡음의 소실과 동시에 개구제한이 발생하였음을 보고하였다. 환자는 개구제한과 함께 개구시 우측 악관절의 통증을 호소하였으며 구강내 교합 검사 시 전치부의 개교합과 함께 하악이 우측으로 전위된 양상이 관찰되었다. 또한 좌측으로의 측방운동량 또한 감소된 것으로 관찰되었다. 자기공명영상에서 우측 악관절에서 비정복성 관절 원판 전방 변위가 관찰되었으며 후방 관절강의 협착이 관찰되었다. 이 환자는 우측 악관절의 비정복성 관절원판 전방변위로 진단되었으며, 급성 교합변화는 변위된 관절원판에 의해 야기된 과두위치의 변화로 초래된 것으로 추정하였다. 처음 3개월간의 물리치료와 약물치료와 병행된 안정교합장치요법에서는 만족할 만한 치료결과를 얻지 못하였으나, 그 다음 약 8개월간 사용된 악간견인장치 치료를 통해서 통증 및 교합변화가 해소되었으며 정상적인 개구량으로 회복되었다. 술후 촬영된 자기공명영상에서 우측 과두가 재형성된 양상을 관찰할 수 있었다.

A 35 year-old female presented with the complaint of sudden occurrence of bite change and concurrent opening limitation, as well as pain in the right temporomandibular joint (TMJ) during mouth opening. From her history it was revealed that she had simple clicking of right TMJ for several years before onset of these symptoms, and that the clicking sound subsided recently after development of opening limitation. On clinical examination, anterior open bite, midline shift of the mandible to right, and premature contacts on left posterior teeth were observed. Maximum mouth opening and lateral movement to left were also restricted. On magnetic resonance images, the right TMJ showed anterior disc displacement without reduction and the posterior joint space is greatly collapsed by retrusion of the condyle. It was thought that the sudden occurrence of occlusal change would be resulted from abrupt displacement of the mandible associated with development of the anterior disc displacement without reduction. The stabilization appliance traction therapy was performed initially for first 3 months along with physical and pharmacologic therapy. However, the anterior open bite and opening limitation didn't resolve and the position of mandible still remained altered. So the stabilization appliance was changed to intermaxillary traction device. Then the mandible returned progressively to normal position and the occlusion became more stable and comfortable. After 5 months of intermaxillary traction therapy, the anterior open bite was dissolved completely and the occlusion became stabilized satisfactorily along with recovery of normal mouth opening range. On post-treatment magnetic resonance image, remodeling of condylar head was observed.

제안 방법
After giving the patient an assuring explanation about the condition and its prognosis as well as self-care instruction, firstly right TMJ manipulation was performed to reduce the displaced disc on the condyle head. However, the procedure was not successful.
In this case report, we described a patient with internal derangement in right TMJ who presented with the limitation of mouth opening and the subsequent acute occlusal change. The TMJs wereevaluated as to morphology and relative position of the disc and condyle based on the magnetic resonance images (MRI) taken at pre- and post-treatment in order to explain the mechanism causing acute occlusal change. The effectiveness of intermaxillary traction therapy in resolving anterior open bite associated with the disc displacement without reduction was also discussed.
Thus, we decided to try the intermaxillary traction treatment for the patient in an attempt to correct the occlusal change as well as to close the anterior open bite. The intermaxillary traction treatment was performed by using two full-coverage plastic appliances seated on each the upper and the lower dental arch during sleep. As long as the appliances are worn in the mouth, it is expected that a pivoting action would be produced by the pivoting fulcrums on most distal occlusal surface of the appliance, and intermaxillary elastics on buccal surface of canine and premolar area (Fig.
However, the procedure was not successful. Then the treatment directed to supportive therapy including medication using NSAID and tranquilizer, and physical modalities like ultrasound and TENS. A maxillary stabilization appliance was fabricated for the patient and recommended to wear it during sleep.
대상 데이터
A 35 year-old female visited the Department of Oral Medicine, Kyungpook National University Hospital with the complaints of sudden occurrence of bite change and concurrent opening limitation and pain in the right temporomandibular joint (TMJ) on wide opening. From her past history, it was revealed that she had simple clicking of right TMJ for about 2 years before the development of these symptoms.
성능/효과
In conclusion, although the acute occlusal change including anterior open bite is uncommon in the patients with anterior disc displacement without reduction in TMJ, the clinical symptoms would not easily resolve as long as the jaw function remains unstable with poor occlusal contacts. Initially, the reduction of the displaced disc should be tried by the manual manipulation of the mandible.
