First seen Feb 17, 2026 · Last updated Apr 30, 2026 · Updated 14 times
Summary
This study tested two common treatments for jaw muscle pain (TMD) in 24 adults: a 6-week physiotherapy program with exercises and manual therapy, versus wearing a mouth splint at night. The goal was to see which approach better reduces pain, improves mouth opening, and boosts quality of life. Results may help doctors choose the best treatment for jaw pain.
