Sponsor's own description

The goal of this prospective cohort study is to evaluate the effectiveness of combined arthrocentesis and occlusal stabilization splint therapy in patients diagnosed with disc displacement without reduction of temporomandibular joint-induced closed locks. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Is there a difference in the treatment response between chronic and acute closed-lock conditions? * On which dimensions of pain did the treatment have positive effects? Participants will be preoperatively examined and assigned to one of the two study groups. * All participants undergo a single session of TMJ arthrocentesis. * Following the arthrocentesis session, all participants will use preoperatively fabricated occlusal splints. * Participants will be recalled in one week to evaluate the outcomes. Researchers will compare acute and chronic closed-lock groups to see if there are differences between pain intensities and mouth-opening amounts postoperatively.
