There are several reports of children who have suffered facial injuries and fractures of the facial bones that became into ankylosis, characterized by the formation of new temporomandibular joint surfaces. The patient was a five years old girl who presented ankylosis of TMJ due to a car accident six months before. The symptom were: Limitation of motion, persistent close lock of mouth (2 mm) muscle pain that causes the patient to avoid eating foods, and the gradual loose of phonetic function. Condylectomy of the left mandibular condyle was performed to correct the mechanical problems associated to ankylosis.
