Study Description

Brief Summary

Ultrasound Guided Versus Non-Guided Prolotherapy for Treatment of Internal Derangement of Temporomandibular joint.

Rationale for conducting the research:

The most critical cause for guided prolotherapy is to specify the accurate location of glenoid fossa and the disc space while prolotherapy procedure, and to adjust the needle insertion to according to articular eminence, mandibular condyle, and intra-articular space as anatomical variations. The vibration of ultrasound waves generates a heat so there is a thermal effective for prolotherapy effusion in the TMJ space.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Ultrasound Guided Prolotherapy forTreatment of Internal Derangement of TMJD.

Injection procedure in TMJ Space guided by ultrasound probe the injection materials will be composition of ( !0% Dextrose ) + (Saline ) + (2% Lidocaine, plain anesthesia ). The intervention procedure will done after TMJ MRI assessment for patients who have anterior disc displacement with reduction (DDWR)

Procedure: Prolotherapy
Prolotherapy is an injection treatment used to relieve pain. And for Cellular Regeneration

Active Comparator: Non-Guided Ultrasound ( Blind) Prolotherapy for Treatment of Internal Derangement of TMJD.

Injection procedure in TMJ Space by anatomical land mark (blindly), and we also call it ( conventional prolotherapy ) the injection materials will be composition of ( !0% Dextrose ) + (Saline ) + (2% Lidocaine, plain anesthesia ). The intervention procedure will done after TMJ MRI assessment for patients who have anterior disc displacement with reduction (DDWR)

Procedure: Prolotherapy
Prolotherapy is an injection treatment used to relieve pain. And for Cellular Regeneration

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. visual analogue scale [Change from Baseline VAS at 4 weeks ( lower score means better outcome)]

    psychometric measuring instruments designed to document the characteristics of disease-related symptom severity in individual patients

  2. visual analogue scale [VAS change at 2 months ( lower score means better outcome )]

    psychometric measuring instruments designed to document the characteristics of disease-related symptom severity in individual patients
