View on ClinicalTrials.gov →
Summary
Goal: This clinical study aims to investigate how the range of motion of the temporomandibular joints (TMJ) changes in relation to the patient's head posture. Furthermore, we will assess the efficacy of a specific physiotherapy program in improving TMJ mobility and influencing head alignment in patients undergoing orthodontic treatment or prosthetic reconstruction. Scope: The project will evaluate TMJ function and head alignment in orthodontic or prosthetic patients aged 11-65. The core focus is to analyze the correlation between head posture and TMJ mobility and to measure changes in these parameters before and after the manual physiotherapy intervention.
