Eksperimentel: Proprioceptive Training + Sham + LLLT
Participants in this group will receive proprioceptive training combined with low-level laser acupuncture.
For the first 2 weeks, sham laser acupuncture (identical visual and auditory cues with no energy output) will be administered, followed by 2 weeks of active laser acupuncture.
Proprioceptive training will be performed three times daily throughout the 4-week period.
|
Laser acupuncture targets the Xiaguan (ST7), Yifeng (SJ17), and bilateral Fengchi (GB20) points once weekly.
For the LLLT+LLLT group, active laser is given for 4 weeks.
For the Sham+LLLT group, sham laser is given for the first 2 weeks followed by 2 weeks of active laser.
Andre navne:
Includes gentle teeth tapping, tongue-to-palate contact, and neutral head-neck posture exercises, performed three times daily for 4 weeks.

Aktiv komparator: Waiting List Control
Participants assigned to this group will serve as a waiting list control and will receive standard conservative care, specifically utilizing a stabilization splint, during the 4-week trial period.
They will not receive the experimental proprioceptive training or laser acupuncture protocols during this phase.
|
Standard conservative clinical care utilizing a hard acrylic flat-plane stabilization splint (centric stabilization splint) for TMD management.
The splint is customized to provide even, bilateral occlusal contact in the musculoskeletal stable position during the 4-week trial period.

Tenderness of Masticatory Muscles and Periarticular Temporomandibular Joint Pain
Tidsramme: Baseline, 2 weeks, 4 weeks (endpoint), and long-term follow-ups at 1, 3, 6, 12, and 24 months.
|
Evaluated using the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) 0-10, to measure pain intensity upon palpation of the masticatory muscles and the periarticular structures of the temporomandibular joint.
|
Baseline, 2 weeks, 4 weeks (endpoint), and long-term follow-ups at 1, 3, 6, 12, and 24 months.

|
Pain-Free Mandibular Active Range of Motion
Tidsramme: Baseline, 2 weeks, 4 weeks (endpoint), and long-term follow-ups at 1, 3, 6, 12, and 24 months.
|
Measured as the maximum active mouth opening (maximum unassisted pain-free opening) in millimeters using a calibrated ruler.
|
Baseline, 2 weeks, 4 weeks (endpoint), and long-term follow-ups at 1, 3, 6, 12, and 24 months.

Jaw Functional Limitation Scale - 20 (JFLS-20)
Tidsramme: Baseline, 4 weeks (endpoint), and long-term follow-ups at 1, 3, 6, 12, and 24 months.
|
The Jaw Functional Limitation Scale-20 (JFLS-20) is a 20-item patient-reported questionnaire assessing jaw functional limitation during the previous month.
Each item is rated from 0 (no limitation) to 10 (severe limitation).
Domain scores are calculated as the mean of completed items for mastication (items 1-6), vertical jaw mobility (items 7-10), and verbal and non-verbal communication (items 11-20).
The overall JFLS-20 score is the mean of the three domain scores.
Scores range from 0 to 10; higher scores indicate greater jaw functional limitation and a worse outcome.
A domain score is calculated when no more than 2 mastication items, 1 mobility item, or 2 communication items are missing.
|
Baseline, 4 weeks (endpoint), and long-term follow-ups at 1, 3, 6, 12, and 24 months.

Cervical active range of motion (AROM) limitation
Tidsramme: Baseline, 2 weeks, 4 weeks (endpoint), and long-term follow-ups at 1, 3, 6, 12, and 24 months.
|
Cervical AROM of flexion, extension, left/right rotation, and left/right lateral flexion is measured using a plastic universal goniometer in degrees from 0-80/40/45 etc.
For reporting purposes, each movement is categorized as "normal", "limited", or "no movement", based on predefined cutoffs (e.g., rotation ≥80° = normal; 40-79° = limited; <40° = no movement).
The outcome is the proportion of participants with limited cervical AROM at each time point.
|
Baseline, 2 weeks, 4 weeks (endpoint), and long-term follow-ups at 1, 3, 6, 12, and 24 months.

MRI T2-Weighted Soft Tissue Assessment
Tidsramme: Baseline (pre-treatment) and 4 weeks (post-treatment endpoint).
|
T2-weighted MRI scans were compared with T1-weighted images to identify joint effusion, disc displacement, perimuscular/intramuscular edema, and muscle hemorrhage.
|
Baseline (pre-treatment) and 4 weeks (post-treatment endpoint).

Incidence, Severity, and Frequency of Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events Through 4 Weeks
Tidsramme: 2 weeks and 4 weeks (endpoint)
|
The occurrence, type, severity, and frequency of adverse events and treatment-related discomfort associated with proprioceptive training, laser acupuncture, or stabilization splint therapy will be recorded.
The number of participants experiencing at least one adverse event and the number of adverse events will be summarized by treatment group.
Adverse events will be assessed at 2 weeks and 4 weeks, including the 4-week endpoint.
