Hyaluronic Acid Evaluation as Adjuvant to Temporomandibular Joint Arthroscopy

Summary

This study evaluates the addition of hyaluronic acid to temporomandibular joint arthroscopy in the treatment of internal derangements in adults. A participants group will receive temporomandibular joint arthroscopy plus hyaluronic acid, while the other group will receive temporomandibular joint arthroscopy. Hypothesis: hyaluronic acid as an adjunct in temporomandibular joint arthroscopic surgery provides additional benefits in clinical and radiological outcomes in temporomandibular joint internal derangements.
