Clinical trials

The goal of this clinical trial is to determine whether an intraoral Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) device can reduce pain during orthodontic alignment and leveling in adolescents and adults. The study aims to compare the effectiveness of the TENS device in reducing pain on one side of the mouth, where the device is used, to the other side, where a non-functioning (placebo) device is applied. The primary questions this study aims to answer are: Does the TENS device effectively reduce pain during orthodontic treatment compared to the placebo? How do patients pain levels differ between the treated and untreated sides of the mouth? Participants will: Have an orthodontic appliance placed on their teeth. Experience the TENS device being applied to one side of their mouth for 2.5 minutes immediately after the appliance placement (brackets and wires). Report their pain levels at various intervals after the procedure (immediately, 2 hours, 6 hours, 12 hours, 24 hours, 48 hours, and 72 hours). This study includes up to 150 participants who are undergoing routine orthodontic treatment. The findings will help researchers understand whether the TENS device can effectively reduce discomfort during orthodontic procedures, potentially leading to better patient care and comfort.

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the efficacy of topical 2.5% hydrocortisone in TMJ arthralgia. The main questions it aims to answer are: * How does pain reduction compare? * How does improvement in jaw function limitation compare? * How do side effects compare? Participants will * On day 1 be examined and report their pain level and jaw function limitation * On days 1-21, apply their cream four times a day * On day 21, report their pain level, jaw function limitation, compliance with instructions, and side effects. Researchers will compare topical 2.5% hydrocortisone and topical 1% diclofenac to see if efficacy and side effects differ.
