Efficiency of Ozonated Water Arthrocentesis Versus Conventional Arthrocentesis in the Treatment of Anterior Disc Displacement With Reduction of the TMJ
Sponsor: Ain Shams University
Summary
The aim of this study is to clinically evaluate and compare the effectiveness of ozonized water arthrocentesis (lavage) and conventional Ringer's solution arthrocentesis in the management of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) anterior disc displacement with reduction. The study seeks to determine whether the use of ozonized water as an irrigating solution during arthrocentesis provides superior clinical outcomes in terms of pain reduction, improvement of mandibular function, and enhancement of mouth opening compared with conventional arthrocentesis performed using Ringer's solution.
Official title: Efficiency of Ozonated Water Arthrocentesis Versus Conventional Arthrocentesis in the Treatment of Anterior Disc Displacement With Reduction of the TMJ: Randomized Controlled Trial.
