New device aims to speed up jaw pain diagnosis
NCT ID NCT07486609
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether a jaw motion analyzer (JMA) can accurately diagnose temporomandibular disorders (TMDs) in 29 adults with chronic orofacial pain. Participants will have their jaw movements measured with the JMA and then compared to standard clinical exams and MRI results. The goal is to see if the JMA can be a reliable, non-invasive tool for diagnosing TMDs.
