Filter by:Cross sectional study to investigate the relation between Smartphone addiction and temporomandibular disorders among youth population in Egypt. An online- based questionnaire study. A 296 participants who are Egyptians with age between18 and 35 years old without prior neck and upper extremity related diseases, orofacial trauma or surgeries, history of rheumatoid arthritis or congenital musculoskeletal problems. An online- based questionnaire will be sent through different social media platforms, it will include three screens, the first includes the consent form, the second includes the demographic data (year of birth, current educational status, gender and geographic information ), and the third page includes questionnaires .
The goal of this randomized clinical trial is to investigate the effectiveness of Manual Therapy Based on the Fascial Distortion Model (FDM) on the cervical spine by comparing it with Core Stabilization Training (CST) or Control in individuals with temporomandibular disorders. The main questions it aims to answer are: Is the effectiveness of the addition of FDM-based Manual Therapy to conventional therapy different from the addition of CST or control? Is the effectiveness of the addition of CST to conventional therapy different from the addition of FDM or control? All participants in the intervention groups will be given eight-week conventional therapy (Rocabado Exercises and Patient Education) in addition to FDM-based Manual Therapy or CST. Participants in the control group will not be given any therapy during the study. Neck pain intensity, hand grip strength, head posture, cervical muscle performance, cervical range of motion (function), disability, and quality of life will be assessed.
The aim of the study is to investigate the effects of Manual Therapy and the Cognitive Exercise Therapy Approach treatment in patients with TMD-related headaches.
This study investigates the validity and reliability of the BETY- Biopsychosocial Questionnaire (BETY-BQ) as a biopsychosocial assessment tool in individuals with temporomandibular dysfunction-related headaches.
The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the effect of botulinum toxin on neurons' plasticity in the masseter muscle in humans with and without painful myogenous temporomandibular disorders (TMDM). The main questions it aims to answer are: - does treatment with botulinum toxin alter gene expressions, epigenetic signatures, and cells plasticity in the masseter muscles of TMDM patients? - do any such changes differ between patients with local and regional TMDM? - does treatment with botulinum toxin influence pain characteristics (intensity, frequency, and sensibility) and other variables in patients with TMDM and are there correlations between significantly changed expression of biomarkers and other variables? Participants will be examined with a questionnaire, clinical examination, and biopsy sampling from one of the masseter and are then randomized to treatment with botulinum toxin or control (isotonic saline). Follow-ups occur after one, three, and six months with questionnaire, clinical examination, and collection of post-treatment microbiopsies to see if botulinum toxin alter peripheral molecular events and clinical variables.
Primary aim of this study is to determine whether core stabilization training in addition to orofacial manual therapy is more effective on Temporomandibular Disorders (TMD) symptoms than orofacial manual therapy alone in patients with TMD. These secondary aim is to determine the effectiveness of orofacial manual therapy on TMD symptoms in patients with TMD. Patients will be treated for 10 sessions once a week, for a total of 10 weeks. Evaluation was planned to be done twice, at the beginning and end of the treatment.
Evaluate erenumab- aooe efficacy as a therapeutic approach, for the management of painful chronic temporomandibular disorders (TMD). The study will be a randomized, double blind, placebo-controlled trial comparing erenumab-aooe vs Placebo. A total of 60 patients (30 per each arm) aged 18-65 years old of either sex, and any race or ethnicity presenting chronic temporomandibular disorders (TMD), (meeting the Diagnostic Criteria for Temporomandibular Disorders (DC/TMD) for Clinical and Research Applications of chronic TMD (myalgia +/- arthralgia) will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 parallel, double-blind clinical trial, to receive either erenumab-aooe or placebo. Participants will attend 6 clinic visits (Visit 0-Visit 5) over a period of 21 weeks (20 +/- 1 weeks). Changes in pain intensity and other pain outcomes related to TMD will be assessed. Blood samples will be collected, and participants will need to keep a daily symptom diary and answer some other questionnaires.
Aims:The study was conducted to investigate the effect of Yoga-based exercise program on pain, range of motion(ROM), sleep quality, depression and quality of life in female patients with myofascial pain dysfunction(MPD) of temporomandibular disorders . Methods: MPD will be included in the study. Yoga based exercise program will be performed to the first group as 3 times in a week for 6 weeks. The second group will be the control group. Outcome measurements; pain ,sleep quality, depression and quality of life will be evaluated. Evaluations will be repeated before and 6 weeks after exercise.
The temporomandibular joint (TMJ), is the only movable joint between the joints in the head and neck system. It is a component of the chewing system and is involved in important functions such as speech, swallowing, taste and breathing. Temporomandibular dysfunction (TMD) is the general name given to various musculoskeletal problems seen in the stomatognathic system, mostly affecting the masticatory muscles and/or TMJ. TMD is the second most common musculoskeletal pain after chronic low back pain. Patients with TMD may also complain of other musculoskeletal problems, craniocervical problems, sleep problems, and anxiety disorders. The aim of this study is to investigate, compare and examine the relationship between neck dysfunction, headache and temporomandibular dysfunction severity, anxiety and sleep quality in female individuals.
Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) discectomy is one of the most popular surgical techniques for painful TMJ. Previous studies have demonstrated predictable results of discectomy with optimal results in pain reduction and maximum mouth opening (MMO) improvement. However, those studies had most of the times varied inclusion criteria. A 4-year prospective study was designed including patients treated with unilateral TMJ discectomy without interposal material as the first surgical procedure for two specific intra-articular diagnosis: disc perforation and disc fragmentation.
