About this study
Official title: The Role of Temporomandibular Joint Dysfunction on Proprioception, Pain-related Parameters, and Body Awareness
The term "temporomandibular joint dysfunction" (TMJ dysfunction) refers to a range of anatomical and functional problems, with or without clinical signs and symptoms, that affect the TMJ and/or the chewing muscles. It is more frequent in women and young people ages between 20 and 40. Its frequency ranges from 28% to 88%. The term "temporomandibular joint dysfunction" (TMJ dysfunction) refers to a range of anatomical and functional problems, with or without clinical signs and symptoms, that affect the TMJ and/or the chewing muscles. It is more frequent in women and young people ages between 20 and 40. Its frequency ranges from 28% to 88%. This condition is frequently disregarded because of inadequate diagnosis . Additionally, TMJ dysfunction can particularly emerge in the early stages without the presence of pain. Due to the insidious onset of the disease, especially in the early stages, other TMJ-related factors, in addition to pain-related parameters, need to be considered.Therefore, the aim of the study is to investigate the effect of TME disorder on proprioception, body awareness, and pain-related parameters including pain threshold, pain tolerance, and temporal summation in young adults.
Read the detailed description
"In the study, young adults aged 18-25 will be included, with TMJ dysfunction being measured using the Fonseca Amnestic Index. Based on Fonseca scores, two groups will be formed: those scoring over 20 will be labeled 'with TMJ dysfunction,' while the others will be classified as 'without TMJ dysfunction.' Proprioception will be assessed both through self-reports using the Fremantle Neck Awareness Questionnaire and via joint position sense measured by a CROM device. Body awareness will also be evaluated using the Body Awareness Questionnaire. Pain assessment, including pain threshold, tolerance, and temporal summation, will be conducted using a pressure algometer. The 'pain threshold' will refer to the point at which a person first feels pain, 'pain tolerance' will be the last point that a person can tolerate, and 'temporal summation' will be the pain sensation evaluated after 10 repetitions of the pain threshold.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Assessment of temporomandibular dysfunctionOther
TMJ dysfunction will be measured using the Fonseca Amnestic Index. The Fonseca Amnestic Index is used to assess the severity of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) dysfunction. The index consists of 10 questions, with each question scored as 0, 5, or 10 points, depending on the severity of symptoms. The maximum total score is 100, where a higher score indicates a more severe level of TMJ dysfunction. Therefore, patients with higher scores on the Fonseca Amnestic Index are considered to have more significant TMJ issues. Based on Fonseca scores, two groups will be formed: those with scores over 20 will be labeled 'with TMJ dysfunction,' and the others 'without TMJ dysfunction.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| "TMJ Dysfunction" for the group with TMJ dysfunction. | This group consists of young adults aged 18-25 who have been diagnosed with temporomandibular joint (TMJ) dysfunction. The diagnosis was determined using the Fonseca Amnestic Index, where participants with a score greater than 20 were classified into this group. The participants in this group are being analyzed for proprioception, body awareness, and pain-related parameters, including pain threshold, pain tolerance, and temporal summation. Receives: Other: Assessment of temporomandibular dysfunction | |
| "No TMJ Dysfunction" for the group without TMJ dysfunction. | This group includes young adults aged 18-25 who do not exhibit temporomandibular joint (TMJ) dysfunction. Participants in this group have a Fonseca Amnestic Index score of 20 or lower. Similar to the TMJ dysfunction group, these participants are being evaluated for proprioception, body awareness, and pain-related parameters such as pain threshold, pain tolerance, and temporal summation. Receives: Other: Assessment of temporomandibular dysfunction |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Proprioception Assessment-1 (self-reported)
Evaluation of proprioception using the Fremantle Neck Awareness Questionnaire:Self-reported proprioception will be assessed using the Fremantle Neck Awareness Questionnaire. The Fremantle Neck Awareness Questionnaire (FreNAQ) typically consists of 9 items, each rated on a Likert scale from 0 to 4. The scale ranges from 0 to 36 points. Higher scores on this scale indicate impaired neck awareness.
Measured: Single assessment at baseline
Proprioception assessment-2
Evaluation of proprioception with joint position sense measurement via a CROM device: Proprioception will also be assessed with joint position sense via a CROM device. After finding the target angle in right and left rotation directions, the patient is asked to repeat the target angle with their eyes closed. The difference is recorded. Three measurements are taken, and the average is calculated.
Measured: Single assessment at baseline.
Secondary outcomes (2)
Pain-related parameters
Pain assessment, including pain threshold, tolerance, and temporal summation, will be conducted using a pressure algometer. The 'pain threshold' will be the point at which a person first feels pain, the 'pain tolerance' will be the last point that a person can tolerate, and the 'temporal summation' will be the pain sensation evaluated after 10 repetitions of the pain threshold.
Measured: Single assessment at baseline.
Assessment of body awareness
Body awareness will be evaluated using the Body Awareness Questionnaire.The Body Awareness Questionnaire (BAQ) consists of 18 items scored on a 1-7 scale. The total score is the sum of all items, with a minimum score of 18 and a maximum score of 126. Higher scores indicate better body awareness.
Measured: Single assessment at baseline.

Clinical summary
The research question as the sponsor registered it. This describes what the study plans to test, not what it found.
The term "temporomandibular joint dysfunction" (TMJ dysfunction) refers to a range of anatomical and functional problems, with or without clinical signs and symptoms, that affect the TMJ and/or the chewing muscles. It is more frequent in women and young people ages between 20 and 40. Its frequency ranges from 28% to 88%.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
An observational study of Temporomandibular Joint Disorders and Temporomandibular Disorder, run by Nagihan Acet 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 1 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Nov 2025. 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?
Proprioception Assessment-1 (self-reported) (time frame: Single assessment at baseline). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT06558318, which also lists 13 linked publications.
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 25 Nov 2025.
