Conservative Treatment Methods In Temporomandibular Joint Disorders

Year 2010, Volume: 4 Issue: 1, 264 - 271, 21.03.2010

Abstract

The temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is one of the most frequently used joints in the body. Activities such as talking, chewing, yawning, swallowing and sneezing constitute continuous mechanical loading on TMJ. Therefore, TMJ disorders are not uncommon. Earaches, headaches, and sounds, pain or limitations in the joint when opening and closing the mouth can be observed in TMJ disorders. Treatment principles in TMJ disorders are not different from treatment of any other musculoskeletal pain in another part of the body. Primary aim of the treatment is removal of pain and regaining normal function. Most of the patients respond well to conservative treatment methods. Patient education and selfcare, pharmacologic treatments, therapeutic injections, physical therapy, biofeedback, massage, manuel therapies and orthopedic appliance treatments are among the approved treatments nearly in all TMJ disorders. Surgical treatment may be necessary when conservative methods fail to succeed.

Temporomandibuler Eklem Rahatsızlıklarında Konservatif Tedavi Yöntemleri

Year 2010, Volume: 4 Issue: 1, 264 - 271, 21.03.2010

Abstract

Temporomandibuler eklem (TME) vücutta en sık kullanılan eklemlerden biridir. Konuşma, çiğneme, esneme, yutma ve hapşırma gibi aktiviteler TME üzerinde sürekli mekanik yükenmeye neden olur. Bu nedenle, TME rahatsızlıkları nadir değildir. TME rahatsızlıklarında kulak ağrıları, baş ağrıları ve ağzı açma ve kapama sırasında eklemde sesler, ağrı veya kısıtlılık izlenebilir. TME rahatsızlıklarındaki tedavi prensipleri vücudun diğer bir bölgesindeki kas-iskelet sistemi ağrısının tedavisinden farklı değildir. Tedavide asıl amaç ağrının ortadan kaldırılması ve normal fonksiyonun tekrar kazanılmasıdır. Hastaların çoğu konservatif tedavi yöntemlerine iyi cevap verirler. Hasta eğitimi ve kendine bakım, farmakolojik tedavi, terapötik enjeksiyonlar, fizik tedavi, biofeedback, masaj, manuel terapi ve ortopedik aplians tedavileri neredeyse tüm TME rahatsızlıklarında kabul gören tedavi yöntemleridir. Konservatif tedavi yöntemlerinin başarısız olduğu durumlarda cerrahi gerekebilmektedir.
