Chief complaints:1. Significant daytime somnolence2. Feeling groggy on awakening3. Obstructive sleep apnea4. Frequent heavy snoring5. CPAP intolerance6. Neck stiffness
The patient is CPAP intolerant; due to discomfort from headgear, disturbed or interrupted sleep, CPAP restricted movements during sleep, CPAP does not seem to be effective, claustrophobic associations, does not resolve symptoms, noisy and cumbersome.

nasiolabial angle. Class II (retruded lower jaw) dental relationship. a late opening and a late closing click in the left temporomandibular joint. Mandibular range of motion measurements revealed maximum interincisal
opening of 44 mm and mandible is off to the LEFT by 2 mm. a level III (high) tongue. A Mallampati airway inspection showed a Class IV airway The uvula is small Maxilla is buttressed and retruded by 4mm A small mandibular torus was present

Imaging Findings:Cone beam CT scan (06/12/2012) revealed1) Osteoarthritic degeneration of the right

both condyles3) Decreased airway space by 1mm4) Right ramus measurement is 69.mm5) Left ramus measurement is 62.99mm6) Decreased joint space on the left

Treatment Plan
1. The treatment plan consists of a Telescoping Herbst oral sleep appliance which will be worn every night while sleeping.
2. The treatment plan consists of a mandibular (NYU) orthopedic appliance to realign the mandible. The patient will wear the appliance full time for the first 6-8 weeks. As treatment progresses and the symptoms improve, we will wean the patient off of day wear.
3. The hard/soft mandibular mouth guard will be worn when the patient exercises.4. A follow up sleep study will be performed to monitor OSA

CHIEF COMPLAINTS
Bilateral temple and jaw pain
Headaches Left TMJ clicking Ringing in the ears Excessive daytime
somnolence Teeth don't line up properly Left facial swelling- slight
THE EPWORTH SLEEPINESS SCALE SCORE WAS 12, WHICH MAY INDICATE EXCESSIVE SLEEPINESS DEPENDING ON THE SITUATION. THE PATIENT MAY WANT TO SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION.
Clinical Findings: Class III (protruded lower
jaw) dental relationship.a level III (high) tongue a Class IV airway "Tonsils Grade 3"

MRI (10/03/2012) revealed:
Anterior Disc Displacement with Reduction (left side)
Osteoarthritis of the left mandibular condyle
Tension Type Headache
Lack of full anterior translation on opening-bilaterally
Flattening of the left condyle- degenerative in nature
Flattening of the articular disc of both condyles-degenerative in nature
Anterior displacement of the articular disc of the left TMJ

Subject: 63 yr old female
Chief Complaints:
Mandible is shifted to the right
Clinical Findings:
Currently in braces on the
maxillary and mandibular
arches
Anterior Open Bite
C5-C6 rotated to the right
No joint clicking
No pain or compression
Enlarged level III tongue
Mallampati Class II
Diagnosis
Myofascial Pain
Sleep Bruxism
Osteoarthritis of the left TMJ
Treatment Plan & Sequence
Removal of braces
1. Maxillary Farrar with anti retrusion
ramp to use during sleep
2. Lower full coverage appliance to
ideal jaw position- bringing the
mandible to the midline position
3. Once jaw is stabilized, possible
bonding to establish canine
guidance and anterior support (
