Abstract
The result of the meta-analysis suggests that CCWR of the MMC is a stable procedure for patients with healthy TMJs, patients undergoing concomitant TMJ disc repositioning with Mitek anchors, and patients with TMJ patient-fitted total joint prostheses but unstable in the presence of untreated TMJ disc displacements and when TMJ status is not assessed.
