Needle in the jaw: can simple injections silence painful clicking?

NCT ID NCT06403046

Summary

This study tested whether injecting one of two common anti-inflammatory drugs directly into the jaw joint could help people with a painful, clicking jaw. Thirty adults with this specific jaw problem received a joint washout procedure followed by an injection of either tenoxicam or meloxicam. Researchers compared how well each drug reduced pain, clicking, and improved mouth opening over time.
