The wrist pivot method, a novel technique for temporomandibular joint reduction.
Journal of Emergency Medicine 2004 August
Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) dislocation is an infrequent dislocation of the mandible.

We describe a novel technique for TMJ dislocation reduction that uses the intrinsic biomechanical properties of the mandible.
