Filter by:The main objective of the present study is the evaluation of the clinical efficacy of the intra-articular administration of polynucleotides in association with hyaluronic acid in the improvement of the subjective and objective manifestations of arthrosis of the temporomandibular joint compared to normal clinical management which involves Physiotherapy.
Since TMJ and cervical pain incidence are rising and both structures are highly interrelated anatomically and functionally. And yet no standard protocol for TMD therapy The objective of this study is to state if there is a correlation between TMD and cervical dysfunction. To help reach a better diagnosis and a more holistic treatment. Forty volunteers (15 male and 25 female) between the ages of 20 to 40 were recruited. Cervical ROM was measured in all directions (rotation, flexion and extension, and sidebending) by CROM device, and a 10 cm plastic ruler marked in both centimeters and millimeters was used to measure TMJ vertical opening.
Orthognathic surgery procedures are often used to correct for skeletal II and III skeletal deformation, dental-facial-maxillary deformation, mandibular laterognathy and maxillofacial asymmetry. The factors that motivate patients to undergo this procedure are: improvement of chewing, speech and swallowing as well as aesthetic and psychosocial factors. Correction of occlusal-facial defects requires team orthodontic, surgical and rehabilitation treatment. As with any surgical procedure, various preoperative, intraoperative and postoperative com-plications may occur. Late complications that may occur in variously long periods of time from surgery include among others dysfunction of the temporomandibular joint, idiopathic atrophy of the condyloid muscles and associated pain. After orthognathic operations, pain occurs almost always, although the degree of its severity is a subjective sensation of each patient. Regardless of intensity, the fight against pain is one of the basic activities in post-operative care of the patient. The aim of the study was to evaluate the effectiveness of the physiotherapeutic method, which uses a slow-changing electromagnetic field and light ener-gy emitted from high-energy LEDs - light emitting diode, Magnetholedoterpy, in reducing pain in patients after orthognathic surgery Using the Viofor JPS device (Med & Live)
