简要总结
Aim: To evaluate the effect of dry needling on pain, functional limitations, and mouth opening in patients with OSMF.
INCLUSION CRITERIA
• Patients willing to participate, between the age group of 18 and 60 years of all the genders diagnosed by OSMF grades 1 and 2 by the dentists.
• Mouth range of motion up to 35 to 25 mm.
EXCLUSION CRITERIA-
• All the red flags to dry needling
• Any coexisting infections around the face and neck, TMJ arthritis, occlusive disorders, fibromyalgia, or any neurologic disorder such as trigeminal neuralgia.
• Any systemic sickness or simultaneous condition that could affect the orofacial area and interfere with the study protocol.
• Injuries, use of anticoagulants or medications for circulation issues, metal allergies, and individuals with cognitive or communicative impairments that can impede the gathering of essential data
OUTCOE MEASURES
To assess pain intensity using visual analog scale
To assess mouth function limitations using the jaw functional limitations scales (JFLS-20).
To assess the mouth range of motion using Vernier caliper
PROCEDURE
Study participants will be screend for incusion and exclusion criteria. The pre and post-score will be measured.
