Management of Habitual Dislocation of temporomandibular joint with autohemotherapy.
Pak Oral Dental J Jan ;22(2):117-8.

Since January 1987 to December 1997, 102 cases of recurrent dislocation of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) were treated at Armed Forces Institute of Dentistry, Rawalpindi with pericapsular injection of autohaemotherapy. The aim of this treatment was to prevent the dislocation of TMJ by producing fibrosis in the joint cavity and reducing the opening of the mouth. Three injections (1.5 ml each) of patient`s own venous blood were given pericapsularly in each joint at the interval of 5 days each. Lower jaw was immobilized with intermaxillary fixation for 15 days.
