Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (7)

  • Cervikal region range of motion measurement

    Cases will be shown and asked to perform head flexion, extension, lateral flexion and rotation movements. And active joint range of motion will be evaluated with goniometer.

    "baseline,preintervention " and "immediately after the intervention"

  • Temporomandibular joint range of motion measurement

    In our study, the maximum mouth opening amount of individuals in the group will be measured with a millimeter ruler 'right , left and side movements of the jaw (laterotrusion), forward movement (protrusion) and back movement (retrusion)'.

    "baseline,preintervention " and "immediately after the intervention"

  • Fonseca Questionnare

    In order to classify Temporomandibular joint dysfunction, the Fonseca questionnaire will be applied. this questionnaire consists of 10 questions. Participants are asked to answer each question in the form of Yes (10 points), Sometimes (5 points ), No (0 points). Scores of all questions are collected and the severity of temporomandibular joint dysfunction is determined. TMED-No (0-15 points), Mild-TMED (20-40 points), Moderate-TMED (45-60 points) and Severe - TMED (70-100 points).

    "baseline,preintervention " and "immediately after the intervention"

  • Headache Impact Test

    This questionnaire describes the frequency of a person's headache, the degree of restriction in daily life activities and social settings due to headaches , their psychological state , changes in their cognitive function.

    "baseline,preintervention " and "immediately after the intervention"

  • Beck depression scale

    In order to evaluate depression level, The beck depression scale will be used.in the scale consisting of 21 questions, each question consists of 4 styles. The questions are scored between 0-3 points dec Low scores represent good results. According to the scores obtained, (0-9) points indicate minimal depression, (10-16) points indicate mild depression, (17-29) points indicate moderate depression, and (30-63) points indicate severe depression

    "baseline,preintervention " and "immediately after the intervention"

  • Beck Anxiety Sacle

    In order to evaluate anxiety level, The beck depression scale will be used.in this scale consisting of 21 items, a quadruple Likert type measurement is performed. 0 points = none ,1 point = light , 2 points =medium , 3 points = serious. the december of 8-15 points is expressed as mild anxiety symptoms, moderate anxiety dec 16-25 points, severe anxiety symptoms from 26-63 points.

    "baseline,preintervention " and "immediately after the intervention"

  • General short form quality of life scale

    In order to evaluate the quality of life, the short form quality of life will be used.SF-36 is a test consisting of 36 items used to obtain information about a person's physical, emotional, and general health status. This test includes 8 subscales ; mental state ,energy, pain, physical function, limitation due to physical problems, restriction due to emotional problems, social function and general health. it is evaluated with a score of 0-100 points.dec. High marks indicate a good state of health.

Masking Details
it was calculated that 80% power could be achieved at a 95% confidence level when at least 66 people (at least 22 people for each group) were taken into the study. Therefore, our study Decocking TMJ+myofascial release+ a classic medical treatment (N= 25), TMJ Decocking+ classical medical treatment (N= 25), just the usual medical therapy (N=25) Group 3 group to be 75 individuals will be included. Assessments will be made before and after treatment. Treatment will be carried out in the form of 8 sessions in an average of 20-30 minute sessions 2 days a week for 4 weeks.
