Mouth Opening (Eyes Open)
The woman opens her mouth maximally. The vertical distance between the upper and lower central incisors is measured using a caliper. One-third of the full temporomandibular joint range of motion (ROM) is used as functional ROM. The caliper is adjusted to this range. The woman practices the motion three times, then performs it actively three times with eyes open. Mean absolute joint position error (JPE) is recorded.
5 months
Mouth Opening (Eyes Closed)
The woman opens her mouth maximally. The vertical distance between the upper and lower central incisors is measured using a caliper. One-third of the full temporomandibular joint range of motion (ROM) is used as functional ROM. The caliper is adjusted to this range. The woman practices the motion three times, then performs it actively three times with eyes closed. Mean absolute joint position error (JPE) is recorded.
5 months
Right Lateral Movement (Eyes Open):
From rest, the woman moves her jaw to the right. The horizontal distance between upper and lower incisors is measured. Functional range of motion ROM is calculated (one-third of full ROM). She practices then actively performs the movement three times. Joint position error (JPE) is recorded.
5 months
Right Lateral Movement (Eyes Closed)
From rest, the woman moves her jaw to the right. The horizontal distance between upper and lower incisors is measured. Functional range of motion (ROM) is calculated (one-third of full ROM). She practices then actively performs the movement three times but with eyes closed. Joint position error (JPE) is recorded.
Assessment of severity of temporomandibular joint dysfunction
5 months
Assessment of temporomandibular joint pain
5 months
Assessment of Temporomandibular Joint Function will be conducted in pregnant women through different trimesters of pregnancy at specific measuring times: Baseline: early first trimester (before 12 weeks of gestation). Second trimester: between 18 and 21 weeks of gestation. Third trimester: between 31 and 34 weeks of gestation.
Assessment of Temporomandibular Joint Function will be conducted in non-pregnant healthy women.
Twenty pregnant women and twenty non-pregnant women will participate in this study.

Left Lateral Movement (Eyes Open)
From rest, the woman moves her jaw to the left. The horizontal distance between upper and lower incisors is measured. Functional range of motion (ROM) is calculated (one-third of full ROM). She practices then actively performs the movement three times.Joint position error (JPE) is recorded.

Left Lateral Movement (Eyes Closed)
rom rest, the woman moves her jaw to the left. The horizontal distance between upper and lower incisors is measured. Functional range of motion (ROM) is calculated (one-third of full ROM). She practices then actively performs the movement three times but with eye closed. Error of JPE is recorded.

Jaw protrusion (Eyes Open)
From rest, the woman moves her jaw forward. Distance between upper and lower incisors is measured. Functional range of motion (ROM) is calculated. Movement is practiced and repeated three times. Joint position error (JPE) is recorded.

Jaw protrusion (Eyes Closed)
From rest, the woman moves her jaw forward. Distance between upper and lower incisors is measured. Functional range of motion (ROM) is calculated. Movement is practiced and repeated three times but with closed eyes. Joint position error (JPE) is recorded.
