“…This is similar to the age range patterns in myofascial pain stated by Fouda et al [10] and Shewta RK et al [11]. In other studies conducted by, Nidhi Mishra et al [12] and Roopika Handa et al [13] the age range is reported to be from 18-50 years.Sanyukta Khairnar et al [14] stated that myofascial pain is seen in age groups between 25-45 years. In the current study, the female predominance of 66.7% is observed.…”

Aims: To determine ultrasound therapy as an effective adjuvant for the management of myofascial pain involving masticatory muscles. Study Design: Randomized clinical trial study. Place and Duration of Study: Department of oral medicine and radiology, Narayana dental college and hospital between March 2021 to November 2022. Methodology: We included 30 patients (20 females and 10 males; age group >18 years) clinically diagnosed with Myofascial pain who were randomly assigned into two groups each comprising of 15 patients. Group A patients received ultrasound therapy along with tizanidine 2mg twice a day for 14 days while group B patients received tizanidine alone. All the patients were evaluated for maximum inter-incisal distance, tenderness of muscles of mastication on palpation, pain while chewing, and pain during mandibular movements at baseline, 7th and 14th day. Results: A significant pain reduction and improvement in mouth opening was found in both the groups. However, patients who received both tizanidine and ultrasound therapy had greater relief compared to other group from 7th day to 14th day and the results were statistically significant. Conclusion: No side effects were observed in Group A during or after ultrasound therapy. As it is a non-invasive therapeutic modality and offers good patient compliance, ultrasound therapy can be used as an effective therapeutic adjuvant for the management of myofascial pain.

Introduction: Temporomandibular joint disorder (TMD) is a collective term given to the disorders affecting the Temporomandibular joint (TMJ), masticatory muscles and their related structures. The aetiology of TMD is complex and their management includes various invasive and non-invasive methods. The increasing trend in non-invasive, non-pharmacological interventions for the management of TMJ pain has led to the development of modalities of physical therapy. Ultrasound is an electrophysical treatment modality used in the management of TMD. The aim of this study is to provide an insight into ultrasound based treatment modalities used for the effective management of TMD. Materials and methods: Electronic database search was carried out in Google Scholar and PubMed using the search terms "ultrasound therapy", "therapeutic ultrasound" and "temporomandibular joint disorders". The results obtained from the database search were screened and included for the review. Commonly used therapeutic ultrasound methods in the management of temporomandibular joint disorders with the treatment protocols, advantages, limitations and other factors to be considered for an effective treatment outcome is discussed in the present review. Conclusion: Various new ultrasound-based TMJ therapeutic modalities may be developed in the near future.
