Effects of Rocabado's Approach Versus Kraus Exercise Therapy on Pain and Disability in Patients With Temporomandibular Dysfunction
TMJ dysfunction is linked to trauma, joint overloading owing to para-functional behaviors, mechanical stress, and metabolic issues. Myofascial pain and dysfunction, functional derangement, and osteoarthrosis are the three most frequent TMJ-related disorders. Temporomandibular joint disorders are a type of craniofacial problems. They affect the temporomandibular joint, muscles of mastication, and other musculoskeletal tissues. The most common clinical sign and symptoms associated with TMJ dysfunction are orofacial pain and clicking. The aim of study will be to compare the effects of Rocabado's approach versus Kraus therapy on Pain and Disability in patients with temporomandibular dysfunction.
