Effectiveness of Dry Needling vs Manual Therapy in Patients With Temporomandibular Joint Disorders.

Temporomandibular Joint Disorders Clinical Trial

Official title:
Effectiveness of Dry Needling vs Manual Therapy in Patients With Temporomandibular Joint Disorders. A Randomized Controlled Trial.

Clinical Trial Summary

Temporomandibular Joint Disorders (TJD) represent a set of conditions that involve pain and dysfunction of the temporomandibular joint. TJD are a frequent disability affection in the worldwide population and the 35% of affected present at least a symptom such as orofacial pain, mouth movement limitations and snapping or crying temporo-mandibular. Due to the increase of the incidence of the TJD the investigators propose to complete this study. A randomized controlled trial with parallel groups have been designed and blind evaluation of the response variable. The hypothesis is that dry needling produces a positive effect in the involved variables of this study in comparison with manual therapy. The aim of this RCT is to compare the effectiviness of the application of manual therapy in comparison with dry needling in the perceived pain, mouth opening, the degree of cervical disability and the pressure-pain threshold (PPT) of myofascial trigger points (MTrP) in patiens with TJD.
