Active clinical trials for "Temporomandibular Joint Disorders"

The aim of the present study was to compare the efficacy of three different treatment methods in the management of myofascial pain: masseteric nerve block (MN), trigger point injection(TrP) with local anesthetic (LA) and dry needling (DN).Study Design: 45 subjects aged 18-54 years were randomly assigned to the MN group (n= 15), LA group (n=15) and DN group (n=15).

The aim of this study is to assess the effects of radial shock wave therapy in the treatment of temporomandibular joint syndrome. For this objective, subjects recruited will be allocated in an experimental group or a placebo group. Both groups will receive one manual therapy and radial shock waves therapy (real for experimental group, a sham device for placebo group) session per week along one month. Pain, neck function and quality of life measured will be performed before the intervention, after the last treatment and at one month follow-up.

The purpose of this study is to assess the effects of physiotherapy program and review the associations between neck movements, pain, temporomandibular joint (TMJ) movements and quality of life in individuals with migraine.

The aim of the study is to examine the effect of high voltage electrical stimulation on pain, temporomandibular joint mobility, cervical mobility, head position, tender points and joint sounds in individuals with temporomandibular disorders.

To know the short-term effects of electric massage applied on the cervical region combined with local techniques on the temporomandibular joint versus an intervention that applies only local techniques in subjects diagnosed with temporomandibular disorders.

The aim of this study to investigate the effectiveness of trigger point treatments (ischemic compression) on pain intensity, chronic pain severity, range of motion(ROM), pain pressure threshold (PPT) and functionality on patient with temporomandibular joint dysfunction.(TMD)

This study aimed to evaluate the sustainability of the efficacy of using low level laser therapy and CAD/CAM Michigan splint in improving the range of mandibular movements, muscle activity and reducing the pain.

The objective of this study was to compare the short- and medium-term effects in pain and temporomandibular joint (TMJ) and function of implementing a manual therapy (MT) intervention treatment combined with a therapeutic exercise (TE) program, versus an isolated TE program and a non-intervention in patients with disc displacement with reduction (DDCR) with pain.

The goal of this Randomized, Double-Blind, Clinical Trial is to investigate the effects of scapulothoracic exercises on postural stability, muscle strength, muscular endurance, mandibular functions and proprioception in sedentary individuals aged 18-45 years with head forward posture and temporomandibular joint dysfunction (Cranio-Cervico-Mandibular Malalignment). The main questions it aims to answer are: • Do Scapulothoracic exercises given in addition to cervical posture exercises have an effect on postural stability, proprioception, muscle strength, muscular endurance and mandibular functions in individuals with Cranio-Cervico-Mandibular malalignment? Researchers will compare conventional neck exercises (control group) and scapulothoracic exercises applied in addition to conventional neck exercises (treatment group) to see the effects of scapulothoracic exercises on the neck and jaw area.

TMJ dysfunction is linked to trauma, joint overloading owing to para-functional behaviors, mechanical stress, and metabolic issues. Myofascial pain and dysfunction, functional derangement, and osteoarthrosis are the three most frequent TMJ-related disorders. Temporomandibular joint disorders are a type of craniofacial problems. They affect the temporomandibular joint, muscles of mastication, and other musculoskeletal tissues. The most common clinical sign and symptoms associated with TMJ dysfunction are orofacial pain and clicking. The aim of study will be to compare the effects of Rocabado's approach versus Kraus therapy on Pain and Disability in patients with temporomandibular dysfunction.
