摘要：In light of the new coronavirus pandemic, emotional temporomandibular joint disorders have become more common. As a result, abnormal wear of the bones and cartilages in this joint may favor the triggering of temporomandibular dislocations. This technical note describes a new atraumatic method for reducing temporomandibular dislocation, with advantages over the traditional Nelaton maneuver. The corresponding author states that he has been using this technique for over 20 years in Brazilian public hospitals with absolute success. The note is original and has never been submitted, in full or in part, to any journal. This work aims to present an innovative technique, easy to perform and free of cost, in order to facilitate the reduction of temporomandibular dislocations.
