Telerehabilitation for jaw joint pain and muscle pain
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This trial tests whether rehabilitation done remotely (via video calls) can help people with jaw joint pain and muscle pain. It may be a good option if you have a certain type of jaw disc problem that reduces (goes back into place) and you've had pain for at least three months.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
