About this study

Official title: Evaluation of the Relationship Between Parafunctional Habits, Pain and Functional Limitation of the Jaw in Temporomandibular Disorders

Temporomandibular disorders affect the general health and quality of life of individuals by causing deterioration in orofacial function and cause functional limitation. The use of Diagnostic Criteria for Temporomandibular Disorders (DC-TMD) is recommended for evidence-based evaluation of jaw joint disorders for clinical and research purposes.The aim of this study is to show the factors affecting the functional limitation of the jaw and to evaluate the relationship between the pain, Oral Behavioral Checklist and the Jaw Functional Limitation Scale (JFLS-8), using the Diagnostic Criteria for Temporomandibular Disorders (DC-TMD).

75 patients with temporomandibular disorder (TMD) who will apply to the outpatient clinic of Istanbul Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation Training and Research Hospital will be included in our study.

DC/TMD Axis I TMD Pain Screener Questionnaire, TMD Symptom Questionnaire, DC/TMD Axis II assessment tools 'Jaw Functional Limitation Scale-8 (JFLS-8) and Oral Behavioral Checklist (OBC) will be applied. In addition, demographic data will be questioned.

75 patients with temporomandibular disorder (TMD) who will apply to the outpatient clinic of Istanbul Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation Training and Research Hospital will be included in our study. Ethics Committee approval was obtained from Bakırköy Sadi Konuk Training and Research Hospital before starting the study and a voluntary consent form will be signed by the patients before the evaluation.

In this cross-sectional study; 75 participants aged 18-65 years who has temporomandibular joint (TMJ) complaints for more than 3 months and has the cognitive ability to understand test instructions will be included. Patients with a history of previous TMJ operation, muscle, neurological or rheumatic disease that may affect TMJ, and a history of facial/cervical trauma or neoplasia will excluded from the study.

DC/TMD Axis I TMD Pain Screener Questionnaire and TMD Symptom Questionnaire will be administered to the participants. To determine parafunctional habits and limitation of function, the DC/TMD Axis II assessment tools 'Jaw Functional Limitation Scale-8 (JFLS-8) and Oral Behavioral Checklist (OBC) will be applied. In addition, demographic data (age, gender, education level, occupation) will be questioned.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Jaw Functional Limitation Scale

    Jaw Functional Limitation Scale-8 (JFLS-8)is a scale in the DC / TMD Axis II section and aims to evaluate the functional limitation of the jaw. It consists of eight items that assess restraint due to temporomandibular problems, and these include changes in jaw motility (item 4), chewing (items 1-3), and verbal and emotional expression. (item 5-8).

    Measured: baseline

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Temporomandibular Disorder and Pain, Joint, run by Istanbul Physical Medicine Rehabilitation Training and Research Hospital at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Sep 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye). Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Jaw Functional Limitation Scale (time frame: baseline). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 22 Sep 2021.
