Summary

Pain and trismus are of the prime concerns for the patients in case of Anterior disc displacement ADD of temporomandibular joint (TMJ). In the recent times, PRP has has produced promising results in management of TMDs. It has potential healing properties on new bone and cartilage through the recruitment, proliferation, migration, and differentiation of cells and its tissue remodelling, matrix production, and chondrogenic differentiation properties. It also increases the production of hyaluronic acid by synoviocytes. Needle injury also produces immediate analgesia without hypesthesia, mainly on the painful spot making it effective for the pain reduction and improved mouth opening. Similar effect of dry needling can also be expected in the joint space where it may induce a transient inflammatory cascade leading to healing of the damaged tissue.

So, the Present study is designed to evaluate the efficacy of PRP for the treatment of ADD of TMJ.

Conditions

  • Temporomandibular Joint Disc Displacement

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Dry Needling

Dry Needling will be done for the patients with ADD of TMJ in the retrodiscal tissue and superior joint space .

PROCEDURE

PRP

Patients with ADD are administered with 1ml of PRP into the retrodiscal tissue and the superior joint space. PRP will be prepared by method proposed by Okuda et al., 2003. Reinjection will be given after 2 weeks if required.
