| Summary: | [Objective:] To observe the clinical efficacy of closure therapy for myalgia temporomandibular disorder (TMD) in different sites and subtypes. [Methods:] A retrospective study of 53 patients with myalgia TMD treated with lidocaine and vitamin B12 combined with compound betamethasone topical muscle closed therapy was conducted. The clinical efficacy assessment, maximum mouth opening, jaw movement distance, muscle pressure pain index (PI), and visual analogue scale (VAS) scores before treatment, first and third month after treatment were compared and analyzed. [Results:] After a course of treatment, the patients' maximum mouth opening and jaw movement distance increased compared with those before treatment (P<0.01), and the PI and VAS scores decreased compared with those before treatment (P<0.01), resulting in a better clinical efficacy. [Conclusion:] For different sites and subtypes of myalgia TMD, closure therapy can effectively relieve pain and reduce the degree of dysfunction, and this treatment method has certain clinical value. |
