Condylar bone regeneration following temporomandibular joint disc repositioning surgery: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to assess the impact of disc repositioning surgeries on condylar bone regeneration.

Materials and methods

The study protocol adhered to the PRISMA 2020 checklist and Cochrane guidelines (CRD42024501867). The study included both randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and nonrandomized studies of interventions (NRSIs) (both observational and clinical trials) that reported radiological outcomes of condylar bone regeneration after disc repositioning surgeries were included. The focus was on joints exhibiting new bone formation and changes in condylar height. A comprehensive search across six databases (Embase, MEDLINE, CENTRAL, PubMed, Web of Science, and Scopus) was conducted to identify relevant studies up to February 2025
