Hegab TMJ Splint (HTS)

Metrical analysis of disc-condyle relation with different splint treatment positions in patients with TMJ disc displacement

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effect of bite positions characterizing different splint treatments (anterior repositioning and stabilization splints) on the disc-condyle relation in patients with TMJ disc displacement with reduction (DDwR), using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). MATERIAL AND METHODS 37 patients, with a mean age of 18.8±4.3 years (7 male and 30 females) and diagnosed with DDwR bas...

HTS explorer

In the early stages of a drug discovery project it is often necessary to narrow down the search space for potential new leads substantially [1,2]. This crucial step identifies a set of molecules (a hit series) that have a high likelihood of being relevant to the drug discovery project. In many cases high throughput screening (HTS) is used to test (in-vitro) large amounts of molecules against a ...

Cross-project HTS-datamining

Over the years a massive amount of high-throughput screening (HTS) data has been collected, however, the data are mainly utilized for providing lead generation programs with chemical entry points. The comparison of molecular structures and HTS data across many projects allows to identify and validate structural patterns of frequent hitters, i.e. compounds which generate multiple hits in various...

Complications of TMJ surgery.

Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) surgery can be divided into 3 types of surgery: Arthroscopy, arthroplasty, and total joint replacement. The complications associated with these procedures increase with complexity. They all include injury to adjacent structures, infections, and bleeding problems.
