Abstract

Background: Coronoid Process Hyperplasia is the enlargement of the Coronoid Processes that may lead to their impingement on the zygomatic arch and limitation of mouth opening. It can be unilateral or bilateral and usually affects men in the second decade of life. The etiology of Coronoid Process Hyperplasia is unknown. The aim of treatment is to restore the mouth opening, and the only available treatment is surgery. Intraoral coronoidectomy has been suggested as the treatment of choice. Although the immediate increase in jaw mobility is gained after surgery, proper postoperative rehabilitation and physical therapy are necessary to maintain the mouth opening range. Case Presentation: This case report is about a 40-year-old male patient with bilateral mandibular Coronoid Process Hyperplasia treated with coronoidectomy followed by intensive physical therapy. Conclusion: Coronoid Process Hyperplasia is a rare condition interfering with the patient’ s normal mouth opening. Dentists should consider this diagnosis in case of painless mouth opening limitations.
