Myofascial Pain Clinical Trial
Official title:
Effectiveness of Different Treatment Methods in Patients With Myofascial Pain Syndrome
Myofascial pain dysfunction syndrome (MPDS) is the most common reason for pain and limited function of the masticatory system. The low-level laser therapy (LLLT) and occlusal splint therapy (OST) are therapeutic options for MPDS. This study aims to evaluate the effect of LLLT and OST on pain relief and mandibular movement improvement in patients with myofascial pain.
Myofascial pain dysfunction syndrome in the masticatory muscles is the most common
temporomandibular disorder. Patients suffer from pain and muscle tenderness and may present
with or without restricted mouth opening. The etiology of myofascial pain dysfunction
syndrome is multifactorial including psychological factors, occlusion imbalance, and
parafunctional habits. Treatments for myofascial pain dysfunction syndrome include education,
self-care, physical therapy, use of intra-oral appliances, short-term pharmacotherapy,
behavioral therapy, and relaxation techniques.
Temporomandibular disorder is most often treated using occlusal splints safely to reduce
temporomandibular joint load, and subsequently, clinical symptoms, as a reversible therapy.
Occlusal splints need to be used for at least three months to eliminate temporomandibular
disorders.
One of physical therapy is laser treatment. Laser treatment on tissues provides a clinical
effect called biostimulation, where the basic mechanism occurs at the molecular level.
The low-level laser has non-invasive and inoffensive characteristics at appropriate
parameters.
