Recruiting studies
- NCT06975709Recruiting
Link between jaw pain and sleep problems
This study looks at how jaw joint disorders (TMJ) are related to sleep issues like insomnia, sleep apnea, or restless legs. If you have a sleep disorder, you may help researchers understand the connection.
Milan, ItalyAges 18 years+ - NCT07022795Recruiting
Controlling oral habits for jaw pain relief
This trial tests behavioral techniques to help reduce harmful oral habits like teeth clenching or jaw tension, which can cause jaw pain and disorders. If you often clench or grind, this study may help you learn new habits to ease discomfort.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT07075276Recruiting
Comparing a new growth factor treatment to standard care for jaw joint pain
This study tests a new treatment for a common jaw joint problem called disc displacement. It compares a concentrated growth factor from your own blood to standard care to see which helps more with pain and jaw movement.
Damietta, New DamiettaAges 18–45 - NCT07211711Recruiting
Splint therapy for tinnitus linked to jaw joint issues
This trial tests if a custom mouthpiece (occlusal splint) can relieve ringing in the ears (tinnitus) that started along with jaw or face pain (TMD). It aims to see if stabilizing the jaw helps reduce both the noise in your ears and the discomfort.
São Paulo, São PauloAges 18 years+ - NCT07304557Recruiting
Exercise therapy for jaw joint disorders
This study tests whether specific exercises can reduce pain and improve jaw and tongue function in people with temporomandibular joint disorder (TMD). It may help if you have jaw pain or clicking and have not had recent neck or jaw therapy.
Ankara, ALTINDAGAges 18–65 - NCT07373184Recruiting
Virtual planning for jaw joint replacement
This study looks back at past jaw joint (TMJ) replacement surgeries to see how virtual planning helped. If you already had this surgery at a specific hospital between 2010 and 2025, you might be included.
LundAges Any age - NCT07445516Recruiting
Bite adjustment for TMD: long-term follow-up
This trial follows up with people who previously had a dental bite adjustment (occlusal equilibration) for TMD (jaw or face muscle/joint pain). It compares their long-term results with a group that received a 'sham' (fake) procedure.
Santiago de Compostela, A CoruñaAges 18–85 - NCT07507734Recruiting
Splint and exercise therapy for jaw joint pain
This trial tests whether a custom mouth splint combined with jaw exercises can reduce pain in the jaw joint (TMJ). It may help people who have had jaw joint pain for at least 3 months.
Istanbul, TuzlaAges 18–65 - NCT07517172Recruiting
Brain Stimulation Patch for Jaw Pain: Home Treatment Study
This study tests whether a small, stick-on electrical patch placed on your ear can reduce temporomandibular disorder (TMD) jaw pain when used at home. You would apply the patch yourself and complete surveys about your pain to help researchers learn if this non-invasive approach is safe and feasible.
Minneapolis, MinnesotaAges 18–65 - NCT07566936Enrolling by invitation
Digital vs. Traditional Splints for Jaw Joint Disorders
This study compares two types of custom-made jaw splints—one designed using digital technology and one made the traditional way—to see which better relieves jaw pain and improves mouth opening in people with temporomandibular disorder (TMD), a common condition affecting the jaw joint.
Islamabad, IslamabadAges 18–40 - NCT07129096Enrolling by invitation
Digital relaxation training for jaw pain
This study tests if a digital relaxation program can help reduce jaw pain caused by temporomandibular disorders (TMD). It may be a good option if you have jaw muscle or joint pain and want to try a non-drug approach.
OuluAges Any age - NCT07090772Enrolling by invitation
Comparing jaw position methods for splint therapy in TMJ disc displacement
This trial tests different ways to determine the best jaw position for a mouth splint used to treat a specific type of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) problem where the disc is out of place and doesn't go back. The goal is to see which method works better for reducing pain and improving jaw function.

- 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.
