Temporomandibular Joint Disorders Clinical Trial
Official title:
Conservative Therapies in the Treatment of Temporomandibular Disorders: a Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial.
The present study was designed to compare the effects of the mixed occlusal device using the simplified technique and the low-intensity laser alone or in combination in patients with temporomandibular disorders. A total of 96 patients will be selected after the diagnosis of TMD according to the Diagnostic Criteria for Temporomandibular Disorder (DC/TMD), axis I. Patients will be randomly divided into three groups: Occlusal Device (N=32), Laser (N=32) =32) and Occlusal Device and Laser (N=32). Patients undergoing therapy with a stabilizing plate made using the simplified technique will be instructed to use the device every night while sleeping for four weeks. Photobiomodulation will be applied with low-intensity laser at predetermined points and at specific trigger points identified during the clinical examination (3 J/cm2) once a week for four weeks. The intensity of pain will be classified using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS). Mandible function will be assessed by maximum unassisted mouth opening. The impact of therapies on oral health will also be evaluated through the Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP-14) instrument in a simplified form. The ANOVA test will be used to compare the results obtained between the study groups, while the Repeated Measurements Anova test complemented by the Tukey test will be used for longitudinal evaluation of the data within each group.
