The Effects of Trigger Point Treatment in Temporomandibular Joint Dysfunction
Temporomandibular Joint DysfunctionThe 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)
Efficacy of Low Level LASER Therapy in Treating Temporomandibular Muscle Disorders
Temporomandibular Joint Dysfunction SyndromeThis 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.
Effects on Pain and Function of Orthopedic Manual Therapy in Patients With Painful Disc Displacement...
Temporomandibular DisorderManual TherapyThe 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.
Efficacy of Scapulothoracic Exercises on Postural Stability, Proprioception, Muscular Features and...
Temporomandibular Joint Dysfunction SyndromeForward Head PostureThe 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.
Effects of Rocabado's Approach Versus Kraus Exercise Therapy
Temporomandibular DysfunctionTMJ 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.
Evaluation of the Efficacy of Different Drugs in the Treatment of the Pain in Patients With Temporomandibular...
Temporomandibular DisorderThe most important step in the treatment of TMJ (temporomandibular joint) disease in clinical dentistry is diagnosis and planning. The clinical findings, drug requirement and biological risk of the patients determine the examination methods to be used in the Treatment of Temporomandibular Joint Disorders. In this context, it is thought that studies in the field of dentistry should be increased in order to increase the success in the treatment of TMJ Disorders. The aim of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of of different pain relievers as Dexketoprofen Trometamol + Thiocolchicoside, dexketoprofen trometamol + paracetamol and Dexketoprofen Trometamol in the treatment of pain in TMJ disorders.
Comparative Evaluation of Masticatory Efficiency of Implant Supported Overdenture
Mastication DisorderMandibular Dysfunctionthe goal of this clinical trial To evaluate the effects of different base materials of mandibular implant supported overdenture with bar/clip attachment on masticatory efficacy. Twenty-four edentulous patients were selected to place two inter-foraminal mandibular implants with custom-made cast bar to retain overdentures made from two different base material and divided into two groups. The masticatory efficiency were tested using three different food categories (carrots, bananas, and apples) and measured by four parameters.
ChAracterization of Normal and Pathological moRphological Variations of the TEMporomandibular Joint...
HealthyTemporomandibular Joint DisordersThe Real Time MRI Rapid Flash sequence is particularly interesting for the study of moving organs and joints. This sequence will make it possible to characterize normal and pathological temporomandibular joint movements by MRI.
PNF Exercises on Treatment of Temporomandibular Dysfunction
Temporomandibular Joint DisordersTemporomandibular joint dysfunction (TMJD) is an important health problem that occurs approximately in 22 to 35 percent of adults, different physiotherapy methods are reported as treatment options for management of TMJD. Although that, there is no previous studies about the efficacy of PNF exercises in treatment of TMJD in patients with forward head posture. So, the purpose of the present double-blind, randomized, controlled trial is to investigate the efficacy of PNF exercises in treatment of TMJD in patients with forward head posture.
Evaluation of the Effect of Muscle Activity on Subjective Tinnitus in Temporomandibular Disorders...
TinnitusSubjective1 moreTreatment of Temporomandibular Joint Disorder can help reduce subjective tinnitus levels. This treatment changes the electrical activity of the patient's chewing muscles. For this reason, the relationship between muscular change and tinnitus levels can be evaluated.
