Summary

This clinical study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of low-level laser therapy in patients with temporomandibular disorders (TMD), specifically disc displacement with reduction and myalgia. The study compared laser therapy with a soft diet approach to determine whether laser treatment provides additional benefits in reducing pain and improving jaw function

Conditions

  • Myalgia of Mastication Muscle

Interventions

OTHER

Dietary Supplement

Participants in this group did not receive laser therapy and were instructed to follow a soft diet during the study period. This group served as the comparison group for evaluating treatment outcomes.

OTHER

Low Level Laser Therapy

Participants received low-level laser therapy applied to the temporomandibular joint region in addition to soft diet recommendations. Treatment was performed in 9 sessions according to the predefined laser protocol. Participants followed a soft diet regimen without receiving laser therapy and served as the comparison group.
