Summary

Temporomandibular disorders are conditions that affect the jaw joint and surrounding muscles and may cause pain, limited jaw movement, stress, sleep problems, and teeth grinding. Physiotherapy is commonly used to manage these problems, but psychological and social factors may also influence symptoms.

The purpose of this study is to examine whether adding a biopsychosocial approach to physiotherapy improves stress levels, sleep quality, and bruxism in individuals with temporomandibular disorders. Participants will receive either physiotherapy alone or physiotherapy combined with education about pain, stress management, and sleep habits. The results of this study may help improve treatment strategies for people with temporomandibular disorders.
