Summary
Without appropriate early intervention, prolonged trismus can lead to lasting complications like reduced jaw mobility or temporomandibular joint disorders.Therefore joint mobilization will impact on trismus, that will offer valuable insights into how these interventions will affect inflammation, muscle function and overall healing process within TMJ besides rocabado exercises that involves a series of movements and stretches targeting the muscles and joints involved in chewing,swallowing and speaking and minimizing muscle tension and opening the mouth, preventing further deterioration of jaw function and improving overall quality of life of individuals. If found effective, this will be added to the literature for the treatment of trismus after third molar extraction.
