“…Meanwhile, irreversible occlusion procedures and the surgical management of TMDs are regarded as controversial approaches. 9 Exercise therapy is selected as the initial approach to improve muscular coordination, relax tense muscles, increase muscular strength and reduce pain in the joints and muscles, thereby restoring functional mandibular movement. 10 Recently, the effectiveness of exercise therapy 11 was compared with occlusal splint therapy, which is generally considered the standard treatment for TMDs.…”

“…Among the conservative therapies, a stepped care model should be applied, first using non‐invasive therapies such as counselling, cognitive behavioural therapy and exercise therapy, followed by occlusal splint therapy, and eventually medications such as NSAIDs and/or corticosteroids.

Background: Exercise therapy is occasionally considered as an initial treatment for temporomandibular disorders. However, pain can be exacerbated during exercise therapy.Objective: To investigate the immediate curative effects of exercise therapy in patients with masticatory muscle myalgia.Methods: Fifty-nine patients with masticatory muscle myalgia were included.Therapists performed exercise therapy (stretched the painful masseter and/or cervical muscles along the direction of muscle contraction) in 10 rounds of traction, each lasting 10 s. The patient's pain-free maximum mouth opening distance and degree of pain (VAS value) before and immediately after exercise therapy were compared using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test. The Mann-Whitney U test was used for the subgroup comparisons.Results: Mouth opening increased from 41 to 46 (IQR 43-48) mm and pain alleviation from 48 (IQR 31-56) to 21 (IQR 10-56) immediately following exercise therapy (p < .001 for both). None of the patients experienced pain exacerbation or reduction in mouth opening post-exercise. No difference in mouth opening distance changes according to sex, painful side, painful site and therapist were observed (p > .05 for all). Pain reduction was greater in patients with unilateral pain (26, IQR 12-39) than those with bilateral (13, IQR 5-25) (p = .019). There were no differences in the change in the degree of pain according to sex, painful site and therapist (p > .05 for all). Conclusion:Exercise therapy immediately enlarged the mouth opening distance and reduced myalgia; therefore, it could be helpful in managing masticatory muscle myalgia.

“…1,2 These disorders include a highly heterogeneous group of clinical conditions characterized by pain and dysfunction of the masticatory system. 3,4 TMD are frequent, and even one in ten patients with TMD has been suffered from severe pain-related disability, 5 which directly affects their quality of life. 6 It has been reported that in TMD, there is an increased risk of presenting a greater and ear system, with traditional AT placement (needle puncture with manual stimulation or electroacupuncture) for at least four sessions.…”

Nonpharmacological Interventions for Pain in Patients with Temporomandibular Joint Disorders: A Systematic Review

et al. 2022

This systematic review aimed to compare the efficacy of nonpharmacological therapies for painful temporomandibular joint disorders. The protocol was registered on International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews (PROSPERO) database (CRD42020171364). The search was performed on the electronic databases PubMed, Google Scholar, Clinical Trials, and Web of Science. The eligibility criteria were randomized controlled trials in patients diagnosed with painful temporomandibular joint disorders comparing the pain relief between conventional treatment and nonpharmacological therapies such as acupuncture, physiotherapy, low-level laser, and massage. Fourteen articles were included in this review. At the overall bias of the studies included, 71.42% exhibited some concerns and 28.57% had high risk. The efficacy of nonpharmacological interventions was found to be moderate in the short term and variable in the long term for pain reduction in patients with temporomandibular joint disorders. The evidence pointed out that acupuncture, laser therapy, and physiotherapy are potentially useful interventions for pain relief in patients with temporomandibular joint disorders. However, there is a lack of consistency and short-term follow-up in the studies to determine the lasting of such effect.
