Overview

Prospective study reveals therapeutic exercise improves jaw movements and reduces pain in patients with internal derangement.

Key Points

  • Therapeutic exercise significantly reduced pain levels and improved jaw movements over 8 weeks.
  • Assessment showed significant improvement in lateral jaw excursions (P < .05) after exercise therapy.
  • Internal derangement patients predominantly had disc displacement with reduction (61.1%, n = 22).
  • No significant changes in maximum mouth opening or protrusion were observed after 8 weeks (P > .05).
