简要总结
This study is a randomized controlled trial evaluating the effectiveness of dry needling, percutaneous electrical nerve stimulation, conventional therapy [ultrasound and Rocabado exercises] in adults aged 18 to 40 years with myogenous masticatory pain MMP. Thirty six participants will be randomly assigned to one of three groups DN plus conventional, PENS plus conventional, or conventional only, each receiving treatment on alternate days for two weeks. Assessments include pain using NPRS and pain pressure threshold, jaw function JFLS 20 and maximum mouth opening, and quality of life OHIP14, with results analyzed for statistical significance. The aim is to determine which intervention provides the greatest improvements in pain relief, jaw mobility, and quality of life, thus guiding future clinical management in MMP cases where comparative data is lacking.
