Does Intra-articular Injection of Platelet-Rich Fibrin After Arthrocentesis Followed by Lateral Pterygoid Muscle Injection With Botulinum Toxin Type A Improve Clinical Outcomes for Anterior Disc Displacement?
Aim of Study : To evaluate the efficacy of TMJ arhtrocentesis followed by injection of liquid platelet rich fibrin (I-PRF ) in addition to intramuscular injection of lateral pterygoid muscle with botulinum toxin on clinical outcomes of painful TMJ , maximum mouth opening , joint sounds and range of lateral movement in patients with TMJ anterior disc displacement with reduction Hypothesis : Intramuscular injection of lateral pterygoid muscle with botulinum toxin plus TMJ intra-articular injection of liquid platelet rich fibrin after arthrocentesis are more effective than TMJ arthrocentesis followed by intra-articular injection of ( I-PRF ) or TMJ arthrocentesis only .
