Summary

The primary endpoint will be the average change in pain score from baseline to the three- and six-month assessments. Efficacy will be demonstrated by superior pain relief with the active treatment compared with the placebo.

Conditions

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Occlusal adjustment

The first step consists of the elimination of premature tooth contacts during retruded jaw closure. The second step included reduction of the steeper lateral anterior guidance; the magnitude of this alteration will be estimated by the following equation: (right condylar path) × (left anterior guidance) = (left condylar path) × (right anterior guidance)

PROCEDURE

Placebo occlusal adjustment

Placebo occlusal adjustment will take place in a manner identical to the real adjustment. However, a specially fabricated inactive rotary instrument will be used, and no enamel will be removed.
