Non-Invasive Intravascular Laser Irradiation Of Blood In The Treatment Of Children With Temporomandibular...

Temporomandibular Disorder

This study, which will be blind, randomized controlled, will be carried out on children between 6 and 9 years of age, at the Catholic University of Uruguay, Faculty of Health Sciences, Postgraduate School, and surrounding schools. Patients who present temporomandibular disorders, based on the diagnostic criteria will be the Diagnostic Criteria for Temporomandibular Disorders (DC/TMD) will be included. The laser to be used is infrared, power 100 mW ±20%, wavelength 660nm ±10 nm, energy parameter 60J, continuous application. The technique is not invasive, the irradiation point is by continuous and direct transcutaneous application to the radial artery by means of a bracelet that inserts the laser beam. One session will be performed. There will be a laser group, a placebo group and a control group. Participants in all groups will be re-evaluated at the end, following the same evaluation procedures used initially, evaluating the effects of ILIB on pain and range of motion.

Evaluation of the Effect of Dextrose Prolotherapy Versus Dry Needling Therapy

Temporomandibular Joint Disorders

The hypertonic dextrose injection; Prolotherapy is a proliferation injection therapy that aims to trigger a low-grade inflammatory response inside the (TMJ), with the resultant captivation of abundant fibroblasts that regenerate and strengthen the tendinous and ligamentous attachments and stabilize the disc and the fibro-osseous junctions. On the other hand, dry needling' refers to the insertion of needles without the use of injectate. Dry needling is beneficial for treating a variety of neuromusculoskeletal pain syndromes as it represents a treatment modality for the ligaments and tendons, muscles, subcutaneous fascia, peripheral nerves, and neurovascular bundles. Deep dry needling (DDN) is a technique that utilizes the Intracapsular insertion of dry needles to approach the discal insertion to the lateral pterygoid muscle and the masseteric muscle origin, along the zygomatic bone and arch, aiming to inactivate the muscular trigger points (TPs).

Pain, Central Sensitization, Kinesiophobia and Stress Level in Individuals With Temporomandibular...

Temporomandibular Joint DisordersPain

Temporomandibular dysfunction (TMD) is a musculoskeletal and neuromuscular system-related condition that affects the masticatory muscles, temporomandibular joint, and other related structures. Recent research has focused specifically on pain catastrophe, kinesiophobia, and central sensitization in individuals with TMD. Therefore, the aim of this study is to examine the relationship between pain, central sensitization, kinesiophobia and stress level in individuals with temporomandibular dysfunction.

Evaluation of Biofeedback Therapy Efficiency in Masticatory Muscles Pain Management

Muscle PainFeedback4 more

This study evaluates beneficial effects of biofeedback therapy in reducing pain and increased tension of muscles occurring in patients with temporomandibular disorders (TMD). During the study Electromyography Biofeedback (EMG-Biofeedback)- assisted training lowering muscle tension will be used. The patients will undergo 4 or 8 meetings of EMG-Biofeedback - assisted training Than the patients will be reevaluated after 6 and 12 weeks.

Photobiomodulation on Pain in Patients With Temporomandibular Dysfunction

TMJ Pain

These studies aim to validate the effects of photobiomodulation using clusters of 850nm LEDs (infrared) and 630nm LEDs (red); in pain and cervical and mandibular mobility in patients with TMD. It is a randomized, controlled, and blind clinical trial, which will consist of n= 36, of both genders, with ages ranging from 18 to 45 years, divided into 2 groups: Group 1 Red and infrared LED cluster, Group 2 placebo. The areas where they will receive photobiomodulation will be the TMJ area, masseter muscles, temporal muscles, scalenes, and trapezius. 6 non-consecutive sessions will be performed over 2 weeks. Diagnostic Criteria for Temporomandibular Disorders - DC/TMD will be used to determine TMD and validate participants. To validate the mandibular range of motion (ADM) a pachymeter will be used and for the cervical ADM a goniometer (fleximeter). The pain will be validated using the visual analog scale-VAS. All participants will be evaluated after the first therapeutic intervention, and again at the end, following the same validation procedures used initially.

Impact of Temporomandibular Joint Dysfunction on Objective and Subjective Vocal Measures

Temporomandibular Joint DisordersVoice Change

The present study aims to investigate the impact of temporomandibular joint dysfunction (TMD) on objective and subjective vocal parameters and the quality of life in affected patients. TMD is a pervasive public health issue that impacts approximately 25% of the general population and is notably more prevalent among women. The etiology of TMD is multi-factorial, with known risk factors such as parafunctional habits, emotional stress, occlusion issues, and orthodontic treatments. Internal derangements of the temporomandibular joint are the most common subtype of TMD, characterized by symptoms such as pain, joint noises, restricted mouth opening, and masticatory dysfunction. This study particularly focuses on the limitations in mouth opening due to TMD and its effects on vocal characteristics and quality of life. Conservative treatment methods, such as non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and occlusal splints, have been effective in symptom management unless there is clear evidence of joint collapse or ankylosis. The null hypothesis (H0) posits that the restriction in mouth opening has no impact on vocal parameters or quality of life.

Photobiomodulation for Management of Temporomandibular Disorder Pain

Pain Related to TMD

Photobiomodulation (PBM), is FDA-approved for temporary relief of muscle and joint pain, but there is no indication for TMD. Our goal in this study is to conduct a clinical trial of multimodal PBM for TMD pain. This study will be a double-blind, sham-controlled, randomized trial testing the efficacy of PBM for pain related to TMD.
