Duodecim; lääketieteellinen aikakauskirja 2011Repeated injections of botulinum toxin carried out at regular intervals are an effective means to treat otherwise treatment-resistant recurrent dislocation of the temporomandibular joint. The treatment can be performed simply and safely without electromyography (EMG) or imaging control by a specialist having expertise in the anatomy of the region. In a patient described by us, a previously treatment-resistant condition has been successfully treated in this way for three years.
