Abstract

<p>The method of manually reducing (manipulating) temporomandibular dislocation began with Edwin Smith Papyrus of the BC era and has thus been known for a long time. A variety of reduction methods have been reported, including Hippocrates' method of reducing from in front of the patient, Borchers' method of reducing from behind the patient, a method of picking up the ears, a method using a lever such as a cork, and a method by striking. Findings have also been presented. Symptoms at the time of dislocation have also been observed in detail, and dislocations have been classified. The bandage method after reduction appears to be widely used.</p>
