Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

Investigating the effect of botulinum neurotoxin on the jaw-neck envelope of motion.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Drug: Botulinum toxin type A
  • Drug: Placebo
N/A

Detailed Description

Research subjects will be allocated to placebo or botulinum neurotoxin intervention. A control group will not receive any intervention. The intervention will be administered at three separate sessions with 12 weeks in between. Prior to intervention, and 6 months after last intervention the jaw-neck envelope of motion will be studied using 3D optoelectronic recording systems.

  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Change of range of motion [Baseline and 6 months after last intervention. Measurements compared to baseline values.]

      Measured on a cartesian plane in millimeters.

    2. Change of envelope of motion [Baseline and 6 months after last intervention. Measurements compared to baseline values.]

      Volume of envelope of motion measured in cubic millimeters.

    3. Change of length in chewing cycles [Baseline and 6 months after last intervention. Measurements compared to baseline values.]

      Repetitive chewing cycles, measured in milliseconds.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Change of muscle thickness [Baseline and 6 months, 1 year and 2 years after last intervention. Measurements compared to baseline values.]

      Masseter muscle thickness measured through ultrasonography

    2. Change of maximal voluntary bite force [Baseline and 6 months, 1 year and 2 years after last intervention. Measurements compared to baseline values.]

      Measured through a strain gauge meter

    3. Tooth wear, change of hard tissue mass [Baseline and 6 months, 1 year and 2 years after last intervention. Measurements compared to baseline values.]

      Intraoral scanning. Tooth wear measured in cubic millimeters.
