Filter by:This study aimed to provide normal reference values of surface electromyography (sEMG) and mandibular kinematics in Chinese young adults, compare the sex differences and assess the diagnosis value of these indices.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test analgesic effect of ECa 233 in subjects with TMD. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Can ECa 233 reduce pain intensity score in subjects with acute TMD? - Can ECa 233 increase jaw functional movements in subjects with acute TMD? Participants will be separated into four groups, including placebo, ibuprofen, low-dosed Eca and high-dosed Eca groups.
The aim of this observational study is to investigate the effects of the type, area and duration of ulceration on jaw pain, mandibular function limitation, TMD and swallowing in individuals with diabetic foot ulcers.The main questions it aims to answer are: - Does the change in foot structure due to diabetic foot ulcer have an effect on the temporomandibular jointand swalloving? - What are the determinants of tempomandibular dysfunction in individuals with diabetic foot ulcers? Participants (both groups) will be evaluated for quality of life, jaw functionality, mandibular dysfunction, oropharyngeal swallowing disorder, pain and diabetes complications.
The goal of this observational study is to determine the correlation between forward head posture and myogenic temporomandibular disorder, pain pressure threshold and endurance of masticatory and neck muscles in addicted smart phone users. The main question it aims to answer is: • What is the correlation between forward head posture and myogenic temporomandibular disorder, pain pressure threshold and endurance of masticatory and neck muscles in addicted smart phone users?
Background: The occurrence of many diseases has been associated with oxidative stress and disruption of antioxidant mechanisms. Temporomandibular Joint(TMJ) Disorders are also thought to develop with the onset of the destructive process in the tissues as a result of this balance being disrupted. Purpose: This study was designed to compare salivary and serum oxidative stress and inflammation markers of individuals with Temporomandibular Disorders (TMD) and healthy subjects. Study design, setting, and sample: A prospective cross-sectional study was conducted. 27 TMD patients diagnosed with disc displacement (DD) according to RDC/TMD and 17 healthy subjects were enrolled in the study. Prior to any treatment, serum and saliva samples were taken from the patients and centrifuged, and stored at -80°C until analyzed. All samples were examined for IL-6, MDA and 8-OHdG concentrations. Predictor variable: Diagnosis of disc displacement (RDC/TMD) Main outcome variables: Levels of 8-OHdG, IL-6 and MDA Covariates: Age and gender
Treatment 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.
Introduction: Although there are physiotherapy programs that are widely used in the treatment of Temporomandibular Disorders (TMD), there are few studies investigating the effects of home exercises program specifically developed for TMD. Aim: Investigators aimed to investigate the effect of home exercise program on pain and quality of life in TMD treatment. Methods: 20 patients were included in our pilot study and were randomised into two groups. Home exercises program and physiotherapy program were applied to the intervention group (n=10; age 31.4±11.2 years), and only physiotherapy program to the control group (n=10, age 35.3±18.1 years). Physiotherapy program included ultrasound (US), Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) and exercise. Investigators measured pain with the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) and quality of life with the Short Form 36 (SF-36) before and after the treatment.
The 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.
The aim of this study is to investigate the relationship between neck posture and balance in patients with posterior edentulous and full-toothed temporomandibular disorder and to compare the effectiveness of the physiotherapy program to be applied.
Headache is the most common type of pain in children and adolescents with effects on health-related quality of life (HrQoL), school attendance, and social functioning. The International Headache Society recognizes that secondary headaches can be attributed to temporamandibular joint (TMJ) problems. The primary aim of the study is to evaluate temporamandibular joint functions and parafunctional habits in adolescents with headache. The second aim is to examine the relationship between temporamandibular joint functions and parafunctional habits and headache.
