NCT06207955

Brief Summary

Aim of Study : To evaluate the efficacy of TMJ arhtrocentesis followed by injection of liquid platelet rich fibrin (I-PRF ) in addition to intramuscular injection of lateral pterygoid muscle with botulinum toxin on clinical outcomes of painful TMJ , maximum mouth opening , joint sounds and range of lateral movement in patients with TMJ anterior disc displacement with reduction Hypothesis : Intramuscular injection of lateral pterygoid muscle with botulinum toxin plus TMJ intra-articular injection of liquid platelet rich fibrin after arthrocentesis are more effective than TMJ arthrocentesis followed by intra-articular injection of ( I-PRF ) or TMJ arthrocentesis only .

    Maximum mouth opening will be measured as the distance from incisal edges of the upper and lower central incisors using a ruler and will be evaluated preoperatively , immediately after the procedure , 1month , 3 months and 6 months postoperative .

    6 months

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Clicking

    6 months

  • Lateral movement

    6 months
