Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether three different types of intraoral splints can increase maximal voluntary mandibular clenching force in adults diagnosed with myogenous temporomandibular disorders (TMD). The main questions it aims to answer are:

Do intraoral splints enhance maximal clenching force in patients with muscle-related TMD? Is there a difference in the effectiveness of the three splint designs in improving muscle strength? Researchers will compare the effects of each splint within the same participants to determine which one most effectively increases clenching force.

Participants will:

Undergo baseline assessment of maximal mandibular clenching force Use each intraoral splint for a 30-day period Complete follow-up assessments after each intervention phase
