Objective: To compare patients with chronic migraine (CM) and chronic temporomandibular disorders (TMD) on disability, pain, and fear avoidance factors and to associate these variables within groups.

Design: Descriptive, cross-sectional study.

Settings: A neurology department and a temporomandibular disorders consult in a tertiary care center.

Subjects: A total of 50 patients with CM and 51 patients with chronic TMD, classified by international criteria classifications.

Methods: The variables evaluated included pain intensity (visual analog scale [VAS]), neck disability (NDI), craniofacial pain and disability (CF-PDI), headache impact (HIT-6), pain catastrophizing (PCS), and kinesiophobia (TSK-11).

Results: Statistically significant differences were found between the CM group and the chronic TMD group in CF-PDI (P < 0.001), PCS (P = 0.03), and HIT-6 (P < 0.001); however, there were no differences between the CM group and the VAS, NDI, and TSK-11 groups (P > 0.05). For the chronic TMD group, the combination of NDI and TSK-11 was a significant covariate model of CF-PDI (adjusted R2 = 0.34). In the CM group, the regression model showed that NDI was a significant predictive factor for HIT-6 (adjusted R2 = 0.19).

Conclusions: Differences between the CM group and the chronic TMD group were found in craniofacial pain and disability, pain catastrophizing, and headache impact, but they were similar for pain intensity, neck disability, and kinesiophobia. Neck disability and kinesiophobia were covariates of craniofacial pain and disability (34% of variance) for chronic TMD. In the CM group, neck disability was a predictive factor for headache impact (19.3% of variance).

Background: Sensory disturbances and acquired paresthesia constitute a significant proportion of complications following orthognathic surgery. This systematic review examines the application of photobiomodulation (PBM) in managing these complications and its efficacy in promoting sensory recovery.

Methods: In November 2024, a comprehensive digital search was performed across reputable databases, including PubMed, Web of Science, and Scopus, using carefully selected search terms: "orthognathic surgery" AND (physiotherapy OR physical therapy OR laser OR LLLT OR PBM OR light OR LED OR acupuncture) AND (nerve OR neurosensory OR paresthesia).

: Interincisive midline deviation is frequent. Determining the cause (dental versus skeletal) is crucial for treatment planning. This study assessed the null hypothesis that neither clinical dental midline shift nor the temporomandibular disorder (TMD)-affected side correlate with maxillary/mandibular asymmetry.

Objective: To develop a clinical automated diagnostic system for temporomandibular disorders (TMD) based on the diagnostic criteria for TMD (DC/TMD) to assist dentists in making rapid and accurate clinical diagnosis of TMD.

Methods: Clinical and imaging data of 354 patients, who visited the Center for TMD & Orofacial Pain at Peking University Hospital of Stomatology from September 2023 to January 2024, were retrospectively collected. The study developed a clinical automated diagnostic system for TMD using the DC/TMD, built on the.

Can protrusive movements during TMJ arthrocentesis improve final results?

This study aimed to evaluate and compare the efficacy of single-puncture techniques in temporomandibular joint (TMJ) arthrocentesis for the management of disk displacement without reduction (DDwoR). A total of thirty-six patients diagnosed with DDwoR were randomly and blindly assigned to two treatment groups (N = 18 each): Group 1 underwent TMJ arthrocentesis using a concentric needle-cannula system with protrusive movements, while Group 2 received TMJ arthrocentesis with a concentric needle-cannula system but without protrusive movements. The following variables were recorded and compared between the groups: maximal interincisal distance (MID - mm), patient pain perception (visual analogue scale - VAS [0-10]), and operation duration (OP - minutes).

Synergistic effects of estrogen deficiency and articular disk derangement on condylar bone loss.

Objectives: Temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis (TMJ-OA) with condylar resorption is a multifactorial condition involving hormonal imbalance and articular disk dysfunction, often leading to severe TMJ degeneration. This study investigated the combined effects of estrogen deficiency and anterior articular disk derangement (ADD) on condylar bone resorption in a mouse model.

Methods: Female C57BL/6J mice underwent ovariectomy (OVX) to induce estrogen deficiency and ADD was surgically induced for stress.
