OBJECTIVE: To examine whether the anterior repositioning splint is suitable treatment for temporomandibular joint disc displacement with reduction and to determine the most appropriate pattern of usage.
DESIGN: Prospective random control clinical trial.
SETTING: Dental school clinic unit.
SUBJECTS: Three groups of patients were treated, wearing the splint either during the day or at night or all the time.
RESULTS: 69% of patients could be classed as improvers, by subjective and objective assessments, at final review (3 months after treatment with an anterior repositioning splint). 88% of patients who wore the splint for 24 hours per day improved over the 3-month period; this improvement was statistically significant when compared with the other two groups.
CONCLUSIONS: An anterior repositioning splint is an appropriate method of treatment for disc displacement with reduction. Patients should wear the splint 24 hours a day.
