Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Pain relief

    Measurement on Visual Analogue Scale (VAS). It consists of a line, approximately 100 mm in length, at the left end of the scale "Score 0" witch means "no pain", at the right end of scale "Score 100mm" witch means "worst imaginable pain" \[Time Frame: 10 days\]

    10 days

  • Measurement of the range of motion

    Measurement of the range of mobility of the maximum abduction of the mandible (linear measurement from in mm. the upper to the lower incisor). \[Time Frame: 10 days\]

    10 days

Study Arms (4)

Physiotherapeutic procedures: magnetotherapy

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Magnetotherapy is a pulsating, non-homogeneous magnetic field generated by the Viofor JPS apparatus (Med \& Life, Poland) will be applied using an elliptical applicator with a beam width of approx. 5 cm. Formative procedures within the masseter muscle, duration of the session amounted to 12 minutes. Physiotherapy treatment of the masseter muscles for a period of 10 days.

Other: Four different physiotherapy treatment

Physiotherapeutic procedures:magneto-led therapy

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Magneto-led therapy is a synergistic action of a slowly changing magnetic field generated by the Viofor JPS apparatus (Med \& Life, Poland) and LED diodes with the wavelength of 860 nm were applied using an elliptic magnetic-light (IR) applicator with a diameter of 5 \[cm\] containing 47 infrared diodes. Formative procedures within the masseter muscle, duration of the session amounted to 12 minutes. Physiotherapy treatment of the masseter muscles for a period of 10 days.

Other: Four different physiotherapy treatment

Physiotherapeutic procedures:magneto-laser therapy

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Magneto-laser therapy is a synergistic action of a slowly changing magnetic field generated by the Viofor JPS apparatus (Med \& Life, Poland) and a low-energy laser with infrared wavelength of 808 \[nm\] (max. power 300 mW) was applied. The dose was set to increase from 3,0 J/cm2 to 5,0 J/cm2 and the total dose applied per each patient from this subgroup was 40 J/cm2. Formative procedures within the masseter muscle, duration of the session amounted to 12 minutes. Physiotherapy treatment of the masseter muscles for a period of 10 days.

Other: Four different physiotherapy treatment

Physiotherapeutic procedures: manual therapy of soft tissues

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Manual therapy of soft tissues will include: post-isometric relaxation of the masseter, cellular and tissue mobilization with Kibler fold, masseter trigger point therapy. Formative procedures within the masseter muscle, duration of the session amounted to 12 minutes. Physiotherapy treatment of the masseter muscles for a period of 10 days.

Other: Four different physiotherapy treatment

Interventions

Four different physiotherapy treatment will be used for, to reduce pain and tension in the masseter muscles. The assessment of pain intensity on the VAS scale will be assessed each time after the therapy. After the 10th day of therapy, it will be measured ROM.
