Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
concentration 5% in superior joint space of TMJ in comparison to arthrocentesis in patients with
anterior disc displacement with reduction of TMJ who did not respond favorably to conservative
treatment and to compare and infer which among the two procedures is more satisfactory,
whether dextrose 5% injection or Arthrocentesis.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Group 1 patients with anterior disc displacement with reduction
dextrose 5%
Dextrose, is an osmotic proliferant which acts by dehydrating the cells at the injection site which utlimately leads to release of cellular fragments that act as chemo attractants and start the inflammatory cascade leading todeposition of collagen
Group 2 patients with anterior disc displacement of reduction
Arthrocentesis/Saline
Arthrocentesis , a highly successful, simple and minimally invasive procedure is a safe and simple method for treatment of anterior disc displacement with reduction of TMJ both in short term and long term follow up period, where it is a procedure of removing damaged tissues \&inflammatory mediators.it can be the treatment modality for the for control group
