A custom-made appliance for mandibular mobilization in children with limited mouth opening

These findings demonstrate the efficiency of the MOA in improving MIO in compliant pediatric patients. Incorporating such appliances post-surgery shows potential for improving mandibular mobility and supporting long-term outcomes. Although a larger sample size is needed to strengthen the evidence, current results remain compelling and support refining appliance protocols for this patient population.

Abstract

These findings demonstrate the efficiency of the MOA in improving MIO in compliant pediatric patients. Incorporating such appliances post-surgery shows potential for improving mandibular mobility and supporting long-term outcomes. Although a larger sample size is needed to strengthen the evidence, current results remain compelling and support refining appliance protocols for this patient population.
