NCT ID NCT07292077
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at 102 adults to see how common restless legs syndrome is in people with temporomandibular joint (jaw) disorders. Researchers also checked if having both conditions affects sleep quality and daily life. Participants filled out questionnaires about their symptoms, sleep, and mood. The goal was to better understand the connection between these conditions, not to test a treatment.
