Abstract: (20 Views)
Introduction: Temporomandibular joint disorder with myofascial origin has a high prevalence among other types of this disorder. Two treatments prescribed for Temporomandibular joint disorder would be low-level laser therapy and occlusal splints. The purpose of this review is to compare the effects of LLLT and occlusal splints for the treatment of TMD patients with myofascial pain.
Materials and Method: The literature search was done by specific terms in Scopus, PubMed, and Web of Science databases and the studies were reviewed by two authors based on inclusion criteria.
Result: From 86 articles gained by the search 6 have remained after the evaluation of authors.
Discussion: Based on the reviewed studies and within the diversity of the methods used by the researchers, it could be concluded that both LLLT and occlusal splint would be equally a proper treatment for patients suffering from TMD with myofascial pain.
