Ozone-Flushed jaws: new procedure aims to ease TMJ pain
NCT ID NCT07666282
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested whether using ozonated water to flush the jaw joint (arthrocentesis) works better than the standard Ringer's solution for people with a displaced jaw disc that snaps back into place. Thirty adults with TMJ pain and limited mouth opening were treated. The main goal was to see if ozonated water reduces pain more effectively and improves jaw function.
What this could mean

Active substance
ozonated water
What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer a more effective, minimally invasive procedure to reduce jaw pain and improve mouth opening for people with TMJ disorders.
What could go wrong
This is a small, completed trial with only 30 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The procedure is still experimental and may not be widely available.
