Study of normal and abnormal jaw joint motion using real-time MRI
This study uses real-time MRI to take detailed images of your jaw joint (the temporomandibular joint) to better understand its normal and painful variations. It may help if you have jaw pain or clicking, but you don't need to have a problem to join.
NancyAges 18 years+ - NCT06186830Recruiting
Questionnaire for jaw and face pain

Alcorcón, MadridAges 18–65 - NCT05214924Enrolling by invitationPhase 2/Phase 3
PRF injections for mild to moderate jaw joint wear
This study tests whether injecting iPRF (a therapy made from your blood growth factors) into the jaw joint can reduce symptoms from mild to moderate jaw joint degeneration. It’s being compared against standard care for people who currently are not on other jaw-joint treatments.
WroclawAges 18–80 - NCT06500390Recruiting
TMD and levonorgestrel IUD use study
This study looks at whether using a levonorgestrel intrauterine device (a hormone-releasing IUD) for at least 3 months is linked to jaw joint problems (temporomandibular disorder). It may help women understand potential side effects of this birth control method.

Arthrocentesis with hyaluronic acid for TMJ disorders
This trial tests two types of hyaluronic acid (high vs low molecular weight) given during a jaw joint procedure (arthrocentesis) to see which better relieves pain and improves jaw function in people with TMJ disorders.
AsyutAges 18–100 - NCT06721104Recruiting
Balance and jaw health in autism

AlexandriaAges 20–40 - NCT06782178Recruiting
Comparing two jaw joint procedures for limited mouth opening
This study compares two minimally invasive procedures (arthroscopy using a tiny camera vs. arthrocentesis using a needle to flush the joint) to see which works better for people with a displaced jaw disc that limits mouth opening. It might help you if simple treatments haven't worked.
HuddingeAges 18 years+ - NCT06813040Recruiting
TMS therapy for jaw and face pain
This trial tests if repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (a non-invasive brain stimulation technique) can reduce long-lasting jaw and face pain caused by temporomandibular disorders. It might help people who have had pain for over six months and rate their pain as high.
CoimbraAges 18 years+ - NCT06874868Recruiting
Saliva stress test for jaw pain disorder

Coimbra, Coimbra DistrictAges 18 years+ - NCT07018791RecruitingPhase 3
Art-based pain test for jaw joint disorder patients
This trial tests if using art can help measure pain in people with temporomandibular joint disorders (TMD). It may offer a new way to understand and manage your pain without surgery.
Jeddah, Mecca RegionAges 18 years+ - NCT07147764Recruiting

- How do I know if I qualify for a temporomandibular joint disorders trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a temporomandibular joint disorders trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
