Active clinical trials for "Temporomandibular Joint Dysfunction Syndrome"

This study provides a mechanism for evaluating patients for possible participation in NIDCR clinical research studies. NIDCR studies involve three major areas-pain, neurosensory mechanisms, and pain-relieving drugs-all of which have specific requirements and patient characteristics. No treatment is offered under this protocol; it is intended to facilitate patient recruitment into NIDCR studies. Patients with unusual or unknown conditions that have or have not been diagnosed may be eligible for this screening study. Specific medical criteria for enrollment vary with the particular protocol for which the individual is being screened. Medical and dental histories will be obtained and participants will have a dental examination. Diagnostic procedures will be done in accord with standard medical and dental practice and may include X-rays, blood tests, and routine urinalysis, as appropriate. Participants found eligible for an active study may enroll in that study. Those who are not eligible for a current study may be re-evaluated for future studies within a year if they wish. After 1 year, participants for whom no appropriate studies are identified will be referred back to their primary doctor or referring physician or dentist.

vacuum formed retainer act as bite raiser that increase vertical dimension which may affect Tempromandibular joint and aim of this study is to perform clinical and radiographic evaluation of different thickness of vacuum formed retainer (Essix retainer) during retention phase after orthodontic treatment

The study will determinate influence of four selected physiotherapeutic procedures on the pain intensity and the range of mandibular mobility in patients with myofascial disorders in the SS.

The project's primary purpose is to test the hypothesis that oral administration of a low single dose of β-antagonist propranolol (40 mg) reduces pain sensitivity in patients with masticatory muscle pain.

The study will take place in Egypt. Postgraduate students from different faculties of the Egyptian Universities will participate. The study will begin in Decemberr 2020.

The incidence of temporomandibular disorders will be studied among patients with tinnitus, by the use of patient's history and physical examination.

This study will take place in Egypt. Undergraduate students from different faculties of the Egyptian Universities will participate. The study began in December 2020.

The patients who applied to the hospital for orthodontic treatment were asked various questions to evaluate their oral health related quality of life, malocclusions and self reported temporomandibular joint problems.

Individuals who were diagnosed with reduction disc displacement by Research Diagnostic criteria for Temporomandibular Disorder (TMD / RDC) were included in the study. Proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation exercises were performed for 30 minutes using neck jaw and tongue patterns with rhythmic stabilization (RS) and combination of isotonics (CI) techniques by physiotherapist. Maximal mouth openings were measured with caliper, pain intensities were measured with visual analogue scale and pressure pain thresholds with hand algometer.
