Summary

The goal of this randomized clinical trial is to compare the effectiveness of Botulinum toxin type A, magnesium sulfate and saline injections in treatment of the masseter muscle trigger points, in patients between 16 - 50 years old with myofascial pain with masseter muscle trigger points. The main questions it aims to answer are:

* which treatment has longer effect of pain release with the least possible side effects and recurrence rate?
