NCT05640206

Brief Summary

This randomized clinical study was conducted on patients with disc displacement without reduction. Patient was selected one of the two study groups: control group received only arthrocentesis or test group received arthrocentesis + injectable platelet-rich fibrin (i-PRF). As primary outcome variable, pain was recorded at preoperatively and at postoperatively 1, 2, 3, 6 and 12 months. Maximum mouth opening, lateral and protrusive movements were formed as secondary outcome variables.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change of pain

    Pain was measured with a 10-point visual analogue scale which range from 0 meaning no pain to 10 meaning worst pain at preoperatively and at 1, 2, 3, 6 and 12 months postoperatively

    at preoperatively, and at 1, 2, 3, 6 and 12 months postoperatively

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Change of maximum mouth opening

    at preoperatively, and at 1, 2, 3, 6 and 12 months postoperatively

  • Change of lateral movements

    at preoperatively, and at 1, 2, 3, 6 and 12 months postoperatively

  • Change of protrusive movements

    at preoperatively, and at 1, 2, 3, 6 and 12 months postoperatively
